NHL insider highlights how Chris Drury's handling of 'uncomfortable' Chris Kreider, Trouba trade talk could harm Rangers (Imagn)
New York Rangers general manager Chris Drury has revealed that virtually everyone, including Jacob Trouba and Chris Kreider, can be traded this year. The Rangers are off to a 12-7-1 start and could move some pieces around, including some of their best and biggest names.
According to Hockey insider Vince Z. Mercogliano, league sources indicate that it will be "exceedingly difficult for Drury to put his stamp on the roster at this curious juncture." He added that even if they do manage to land some trade partners, it is "hard to see how they come out ahead."
"There's also the question of how it will be perceived by other players, both current and potential signings in the future. Business is business, but people around the league take notice of how these uncomfortable situations are handled," Mercogliano said on via Lohud.
