One would have to call it a suprise especially without Buchnevich's production being replaced. Should be even better now with Schneider replacing Lunkvist who didn't have a lot of impact on games mostly barely holding his own defensively.
If Chytil can take something out of his game tonight and realize just how Jagrish he could be, then the Rangers would have that missing top six forward. If one of Chytil, Kakko or Lafreniere could make that step to dependable point producer, again the Rangers would be better. 
I think Drury trades for a Giroux type who checks the boxes that Giroux does, faceoff stud, can play center or wing, would be a quarterback on a second powerplay unit, and could make a third line into a dangerous unit. Definitely the guy to target if available. 

Depends on who and what for of course.  I dont think a pick would even be neccessary when they can dangle a Kravstov and Jones to start.  Assets that will never play in New York. You have to give up something for him. He's also not pigeonholed into just a 3c spot. More likely a top six winger that takes the big draws. Could also play the 3C in a matchup situation to give the Rangers three lines. The 'old and slow' reference is just stupid. Also Gourde couldnt carry Giroux's skates, and his contract is way to steep for the Rangers budget, considering the players they have to pony up for going forward.  Giroux has lots of game left for a playoff run, which is the only reason they get him. He's also smart enough to realize with him here they have a shot. He will be motivated. Also underated, he would be a huge addition.. Chuck Fletcher is one of the worst G.M.'s in hockey, Drury should get a bargain. .
