There is no way. His cap hit is 5 million so he will most likely be our only upgrade and he isn’t moving the needle any

I’d be surprised if they would trade him to a team we see to much over the season

Traded a top 60 pick for Riley Smith. Amazing.

So Penguins paid a 3rd for Smith, Drury pays a 2nd and 5th. This guy doesn’t miss

Smith has gone deep in the playoffs a few years with Vegas. 79 points in 106 playoff games. Will it translate? Time will tell.

For one year at $5 mil? Rangers lack picks to begin with and Drury giving two picks for one year if a player who is nothing special. Solid but far from elite. Bad use of assets. Signing Arvidsson for two years at a combined $5 mil would have been the much smarter move

I am sorry, you don’t give up a second rounder for one year of Smith with no salary retention

Yep this isn’t a good move. Paid too much and now don’t have to the cap space to really make the moves they need

The itch is real, but I think we will be thanking him for not getting in on this.

But the Rangers only have a 3 or 4 year window, in win now mode so getting a Stamkos wouldn't have been a bad idea but who knows what trades he has in the works.

Get on board Matt. The Drury hate train is a train of love an acceptance. Only requirement is that you have loathe Chris Drury.
