The Rangers get cap space. The Wings get a pick and Staal won’t cost them a lot of money.

Win win trade
Detroit gets a 2021 2nd…giving them 12 picks in the 1st 3 rounds of the next 2 drafts.
The Rangers have some options.
They can get all their RFA's locked up and still have around $7-8m left.
Then..they can make a move…
Trade for Laine or Monahan or Johannsen.
Or just hold on to the space and use it for a deadline deal next year. The Rangers are set set up for the next half decade
NYR preparing for a Laine trade? 😉
So Fair deal because Detroit gets a good pick and a veteran d and the rangers get cap space
As a Rangers fan future considerations sounds like Detroit might be interested in our No 1 pick Alexis I do believe its the perfect destination for him why would a no1 pick want to play with the Rangers on the 3rd line… If Detroit is interested as a Ranger fan my interest is Dylan Larkin it fulfill the need for both teams
Huge win for the Rangers. Freed up a ton of cap space. It is sad to see Marc Staal leave the New York Rangers. He was an amazing defenseman. If he hadn't gotten injured so much, he had so much potential.
Pointless trivia, but as of now, all four Staal brothers have been traded at least once in their careers. Jordan was traded from the Penguins to the Hurricanes. Eric was traded twice, first to the Rangers from the Hurricanes, and recently, from the Wild to the Sabres. Jared was traded as a prospect from the Coyotes to the Hurricanes.
Why do I want a treadmill video now?
To Detroit: Staal and a second round pick
To NYR: a refurbished 3rd generation iPod
"Future Considerations" AKA Rangers sign a THG commenter to a 3 year entry level contract.
Always hoped all 3 would end up on the same team
Would not count out Staal being resigned to another deal with the Red Wings in 2021, Seider will need tutoring as well as some of the younger D prospects on the verge of joining the roster. Staal provides veteran presence on the blueline and some stability that Ericsson/Daley just could not provide anymore.
This trade is a win/win for both teams as NYR have some critical re-signings coming up.
Staal will be a solid veteran presence for the young d-man in Detroit.
What a deal for the red wings!
I like this for New York cuz they get cap, and the Wings get a 2nd. Pretty good for both.
I think this is a win/win trade.
As a Ranger fan, I’m so happy but sad that it’s the end of an era. No one left from the 2014 cup run. But it’s a new journey and dynasty in the making.
How many Staal brothers are there 3
I want to see a treadmill video just sayin
To get a second rounder just for taking on a one year cap hit is automatically a win.
That's why we love Mickey Redmond he tells it like it is. Great guy
Great deal for Rangers and good deal for Detroit
Is that a #19 jersey? You look awesome in red & white. Regarding defense, we need all the help we can get because our defense is nonexistent. #LGRWS
I played a year of hockey with flthis future considerations kid. He's all hype.
Well now we want you on the treadmill
Bout time the era of the stals came to an end. All brothers are overrated across the board.
Staal's declined since his two head injuries—particularly the eye injury. The game at the same time has changed to more puck moving D which is not a strength of his. That said I'm a Rangers fan and Rangers fans are always shitting on somebody–he can play more than less a fairly competent defensive game. He's also a first class act and has always been a credit to the Rangers organization. Not going to lie though he ain't worth $5.7 mil a year or even close. It's a good deal for us to move him on but I do hope he does well in Detroit.
What does this mean for the guys they have to resign? Does this add enough space to keep the key guys around?
Good old-fashioned win-win trade for both teams, nothing wrong with that. Props on the Mickey Redmond shout-out.
He will always be remember and loved. He was a work horse and I remember when he defended ovi and Crosby during the playoffs But rangers need that cap space. Good move. Staal will be a mentor and bottom d for Detroit. He will always be a ranger. Biden 2020
What if Detroit keeps Staal for most of the season, he helps mentor the youngsters and has a reasonably good season, and then Detroit trades him to a Stanley Cup contender for another draft pick at the trade deadline? What would Staal's remaining cap hit be at that time?
Steve Yzerman built the the Tampa Bay Lightning and he will re-build the Red Wings. If adding Staal for one year so be it. Yzerman got a #2 pick and that's what he wanted.
He will built the Red Wing like he built Tampa Bay. Yzerman had Jimmy Devellano as GM in his playing. Devellano built the Islanders as their head scout and built the Red Wings as their GM, great Mentor for Yzerman. Rangers just wanted to dump salary.
Can you do a video about future considerations? I'd like to know when these have actually come into play and made a difference. I've never heard a report that included "X team cashed in on their future considerations they received from X trade in 2017". Could be interesting.
When Staal was at his best, especially in the playoffs, he would always do a great job taking out Ovechkin and neutralizing him, his defense and value was always underrated imo.
The rangers won the trade bc now we have 20 mil for this offseason so we can resign every one
What does future considerations mean?
weaponizing the cap space is what Yzerman is doing. Krug is next before Oct 9th and perhaps a goalie like Murray or Fleury. Rossi or Jack Quinn picked in 4th.
Hronek-Krug
Nemeth-Seider
Deykeyser-Staal
Biega
What is ''future considerations''? And how do they negotiate about something like that? 😀 Weird stuff for me, but I guess someone knows how it goes.
aren't there 32 picks per round next season so if the Rangers win the cup it would be pick 64
Detroit needed an NHL caliber LD in the bottom four. It was a hole that needed plugged. Staal will play.
best fan made hockey channel
Detroit's defense was atrocious? What was the Rangers?
It's an obvious cap dump by the Rangers and Detroit gets a second round pick. I also think Yzerman could possably trade Staal at the deadline to a team desperate for a defenseman if he has a descent year (Detroit would have to retain salary). He might not get much but even a low pick is something. If not, then after the year you just let him walk.
