I see this brought up a lot and even though I agree it would make a ton of sense for NYR the cap space needs to work for them and it won't be easy.
Rangers will have 2.5M in cap space after Laf is gone meaning they need to ship out another 2.75M to have Kane at 50% retained (5.25)
Players making more than 2.75 on the Rangers: Panarin (2026), Zibanejad (2030), Kreider (2027), Trochek (2029), Goodrow (2028), Fox (2029), Trouba (2028), Lindgren (2025 RFA).
I just can't see them moving any of those out to add Kane as a rental? Would love to see some peoples ideas.
