Ongoing Trade Thread 2025-26

Sucks to trade Batherson after getting him, but cap space seems to be at a premium, and I'm okay with sucking this year. Rosen is a good prospect and it should help me shore up other areas. Blueger is a good depth center.


Thanks, Harry.

To NYR: Mitch Marner, Matty Beniers, 2026 2nd round pick (VAN)
To COL: Morgan Geekie, Yanni Gourde, Matthew Wood, 2026 1st round pick (NYR)

Tough deal to make, especially giving up my McKenna lottery ticket. But I don't want be in a perennial rebuild either, and I feel I've added enough to my prospect pool over the last couple of years (including four 1sts next week) to make a move like this and add quality to the roster. Happy to add a 100 point player in Marner and a good young center in Beniers.

Giving up Geekie and Wood stings a bit. I believe Geekie was the last remnant from the team I inherited when I took over the Rangers 7 years ago, and I believe Wood was actually the first 1st round pick I ever made in the CPHL (despite being in the league for over a decade at that point lol). Geekie has had a really good season, and we'll see if he can replicate that ... Wood is a solid prospect, but I don't know if he can overcome his skating at the next level.

Thanks to Macho0978, always a pleasure to deal with. Obviously stockpiling those McKenna lottery tickets, so I'm curious how that'll play out.

Well done on that deal guys. I have concerned Matty Beniers "is what he is" and there is no more room to grow but getting Marner to ease that is nice.

To NYR: Morgan Geekie
To COL: Ross Colton, pick #57

happy to bring Geekie back into the fold. Time will tell if the 33 goals were a mirage or not, but more than willing to take that bet. Thanks Macho0978 for yet another quick and easy deal.
