Lundkvist had a great year in the SHL, Buchnevich could fill in as the 2nd line RW, and the 2020 1st would give us another solid prospect in the future.
Of the 3 teams we're now discussing, the Rangers make the most sense. Could even see some deals involving Georgiev (who would be an ideal target to see if he could handle lots of GP).

IMO Nils Lundkvist would come over and by the end of the next season he'd be playing top 4 for the Flames easily. That would really round out the D core for a long time and make up for losing Fox through the ole college "I don't wanna play for the team that drafted me" bull ####.
That'd be a huge get, but I just don't see the Rangers needing Gaudreau now that they have Panarin and landed Lafreniere. They do like their super stars though.
