But moving Raanta, who is one year away from free agency, would guarantee that the Rangers would lose someone else — likely Lindberg, Jesper Fast or Michael Grabner — in the expansion draft.
So Gorton would have to get value in return for the 28-year-old Finn that would compensate for the loss of the goaltender
and the player who would go to the Golden Knights.

He's trying to make the case that the Rangers need to collect twice for the same player. As it stands they are going to lose Raanta anyways, so all they should be interested in is to get compensation for the other player Vegas takes.
