Default Rangers trade deadline

It ended up being a quiet trade deadline for the Rangers with only 1 trade made but we looked and discussed several more possibilities but nothing came from those talks. But overall, we gave up a lot of younger pieces, especially picks to upgrade the depth of this team for this year. I have always had a difficult time looking long term while playing a game, so giving up those future pieces doesn't bother me as I like to play on a more year by year basis. Over the last month or so here are the changes:

In:
Nik Kulemin
Mark Streit
Jiri Hudler
Brandon Davidson
Mike Weber
Jonathan Ericsson
Marian Gaborik
Claude Giroux
Tyler Bozak
Carl Hagelin



Out:
Kevin Labanc
2017 5th
2018 2nd
Colton Sceviour
Cliff Pu
2017 4th
Brad Richardson
Kenny Morrison
Adam Ollas-Mattsson
Richard Panik
Sven Bartschi
Olli Maatta
2017 1st
2017 3rd
Matt Nieto
2017 2nd
Melker Karlsson
Matt Phillips
2018 3rd

Playoff lineup will look something like this but there are many interchangeable pieces up front:

Stone-Giroux-Couture
Gaborik-Little-Nyquist
Hudler-Bozak-Hagelin
Nestrasil-Kulemin-Nordstrom

Campbell-Streit
Sekera-Ericsson
Davidson-Gunnarsson

Markstrom
Grubauer
