The mighty New York Rangers last years Presidents Trophy winners have dropped three games in a row. Theyre 3-11 in their last 14 games. So, what do they do? Well, , the Rangers have made yet another trade. The Kaapo Kakko era has come to an end in New York. Earlier tonight, it was announced that the . Kakko was taken with the second-overall pick in the 2019 B.J. Goodson Jersey NHL draft, but hasnt lived up to the expectations of his high draft position. This trade has been a long time coming, but things escalated this past week. Kakko was healthy scratched against the St. Louis Blues last Saturday, and . Kakko is 23, and has 14 points in 30 Randy Bullock Jersey games this season. He has 61 goals and a total of 131 points through 330 career NHL games. Here are my grades for how each team fared in this trade: Seattles Grade: B+ Seattle made out like a bandit here. Sure, Kakko hasnt yet lived up to the lofty expectations that come with being a highly drafted player, but the Kraken acquired him for peanuts. And, of course, should he find his form in Seattle, this trade looks even better. Even though Kakko didnt bring the offensive production that New York clearly wanted from him, he has Leo Durocher Jersey a strong defensive game. Hes young, fast, and will likely fit in well in Seattle. Kakko wont be the first player looking to find a fresh start in Seattle. Previously, the Kraken helped former first-rounders Jared McCann and Eeli Tolvanen establish themselves in the league. So, if any team can help Kakko become its probably the Kraken. New Yorks Grade: D Things arent going too Dexter Lawrence Ii Jersey well in Rangersland. Kakko undoubtedly needed a fresh start, but this is just atrocious a set management. The Rangers just traded their second-overall pick in 2019 for a depth defenseman and two draft picks. Dont get me wrong, I like Will Borgen. Hes physical, and he loves to shoot the puck. But this isnt the return youd like to get for a player who was drafted second-overall. Call me crazy, but this isnt going to magically fix the New York Rangers. Kakko wasnt scoring goals. So what? He was far from New Yorks biggest i sue. The biggest i Dyontae Johnson Jersey sue plaguing the Rangers is their complete inability to defend, and they just traded away one of the few players who committed to team defense.
