Can't blame them either. Huge contract on a fading player. They could use that pick or other assets to get another D man. Can never have enough reliable D men in the play-offs
Cant say I blame the Rangers here.

FWIW, Eric Staal is playing today and hasn't been scratched.

Who do you think is most likely destination? Anaheim? I see they have 7.38 million cap space.
I think it's the Rangers or bust for Eric. He holds all the cards.

Despite the brotherly love, I could see ANH. They have a deep prospect pool and there is a certain fit. He can always sign in NY in the offseason..

Crosby, Wheeler, Bergeron, Forsberg, Connor, Kopitar, E.Lindholm, Pastrnak, DeBrincat, Fiala

Saros, Shesterkin
Garland, Vrana, Bjorkstrand, Verhaege, Backstrom, Karlsson, Perunovich, Spurgeon, Pulock, Hellebuyck
He doesn't move at all. Goes to free agency.

You would think worst comes to worst Carolina takes what ever they can get for him since he will be leaving at seasons end.
I think he will get moved for (2) 2nd Rounders

I'd bet they want Buchnevich.Assuming Staal to NYR gets done - and it's not done yet - I'd expect CAR to get couple of picks (2nd rounders?) and a prospect. Stay tuned.
