Here is an article from some Rangers blog site . Speculates what the Rangers were offering

“The team with the best combination of the want and ability to do it is the Rangers, but is Buffalo going to be comfortable sending him there,” Friedman explained. “So part of the issue [for the Sabres] is going to be does anybody have the will to beat what the Rangers have to offer.”

Exactly what could that offer have been? I have it on good authority, especially since it did not include at the time the #1 overall pick or Kaapo Kakko what the package may have been. The “reasonable” offer probably looked something like Vitali Kravtsov, a roster player, a young prospect defenseman (Nils Lundkvist or Braden Schneider excluded), and a first round pick.
Quote:
“They are not sure if they are going to trade him or not,” Lavoie began. “If they trade him they want four pieces that are first round picks. Or players that are playing if not in the NHL or elsewhere like the NCAA – that were first round picks and are having success and not struggling.”
