There is one team reportedly interested in doing business with the New York Rangers.
It’s well known at this point that Rangers general manager Chris Drury wants to make some sort of move to shake up the team with Chris Kreider and Jacob Trouba’s name being thrown out as potential players who could be traded.
According to Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman, the Rangers have been talking with the Ottawa Senators regarding a trade.
“The first thing Drury wants to do is figure out exactly what the trade market is for his guys,” Friedman said. “He is fielding those calls. I think Ottawa is among one of the teams that have talked to the Rangers about something there, but I think there is a lot more to.”
The Rangers have a few days off right now before playing the Pittsburgh Penguins on Friday, so Friedman reports that Drury is using this time to see what he can and can’t do on the trade market.
Friedman made it clear that it’s not just Kreider and Trouba who the Rangers are attempting to shop as it goes far beyond those two players.
Drury is yet to make a trade despite all of these rumors and Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today reported that it will be extremely difficult to pull off a significant move at this stage of the season.
