I like this move.... now lets replace him with a young scoring center!

Does Rick Nash have enough left in the tank to help the Bruins? His stats are way down this year, but the Rangers are a pretty non-competitive squad, so it's hard to tell if he was part of the problem, or just overwhelmed by the lack of talent surrounding him.

Assuming no more additions, with Stasny gone, the top line would have to be Shwarz, Scheen, Tarasenko correct? How many minutes an night could you play them because we really have nothing left NHL ready at this point.

We are not strong up the middle to begin with.... Now trading Staz. Army really needs to grab another center in a deal.

I understand why some may believe that the trade of Stastny signals the end of playoff hopes this season, but the players, for the most part, must take some of the blame. In todays NHL, unless you decide to fire the coach, then there maybe only two other ways to get it across to players that they need to play better. One is a trade of a core player. Indeed that was what Scotty Bowman did a few times when the team was not playing well. The other is ice time. Because this losing started late in the year and the trade deadline is today, that might not have worked. Yet as I recall in Brian Sutter's first year as coach of the Blues, the team was a no show for a game in LA. Accordingly, for the next game Sutter did not dress Hull and Oates, the team's best two players. That no only turned those two around but the team as well. Perhaps in game 50, if the coach had sat Vlad and one of the top two defensemen, maybe the same outcome. I am ready for Cardinal Baseball!

haha. I think the funniest part of this deal is the lottery protection.... The jets could lose every single game the rest of the season and still not be anywhere close to top 3 picks....

It amazes me how many "fans" want to run Tarasenko out of town just for having a down year. The guys has been sniffing around 40 goals the past three seasons. Signed to a very manageable contract for superstar talent. Has the ability to be a game-breaker. I understand watching the team go through such a downward fall is tough but the punishment doesn't fit the crime.

I understand Petro sticking up for his teammate in regards to the boos for Allen. but at the same time fans pay their hard earned money to see games and Allen was flat out terrible on two of those goals. No NHL goaltender should be that out of position on angles. My only point is the goaltender gets stuck with the short end of the stick because ultimately he is the one who answers for goals getting past him but this team has hung him out to dry, period. Absolutely no help whatsoever. BONEHEAD PLAYS.

I don't see the captain as a problem. The problem is lack of scoring, goaltending and coaching. Yeo cant coach a power play or make in game changes. Minny let him go for a reason . Also think Army has had enough time to bring a winner he is going back wards and has proven he is great at finding 3rd or 4th line players . May be time to see what Brodeur can do!

Schwartz Schenn Tarashenko was dominant earlier in the year but not now for some reason? I did not want to give up on this year....but we are now weak down the middle. Don't get this---at the top of our game we were among the best teams.

This is sort of a trade question: Yeo's system is high-risk; high-reward. He pinches defenseman and leaves a forward back to cover. So, when those odd man rushes do occur they are against only 1 defenseman and sometimes that defenseman is a 3rd line player. What kind of players does Yeo need to run this offense? I'm starting to wonder if Yeo is worth keeping.

We need to rid this team of these overpaid contracts. Sorry, but Statsny was one of them. Only about 6 more to go. So many problems with not enough answers right now.
