Sucks cuz if Kaako breaks out this year, that's another player that will provide excellent value for the Rags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite struggles off ice getting on top of his health and injury setbacks he frankly was drafted well above where he should have been. If people are looking at stats hoping or anticipating him breaking out its likely not coming. He has developed a reliable defensive game, strong on the boards etc but his offense has just not translated to North America. He did nobody any favor by signing his qualifying offer. He is on a contender, establishing himself as a mid-six defensively reliable forward with some jam. A glue guy so to speak. Another club could very well try to fit him in a different role hoping for offense but may not be worthwhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s a great deal for both sides he bets on himself and the Rangers get a solid player with some growing pains on a dirt cheap deal.

The St. Louis Blues re-signed Tkachuk to a one-year contract and then traded him to the Atlanta Thrashers. Another example is the 2020 trade involving Taylor Hall. The Arizona Coyotes re-signed Hall and then traded him to the Buffalo Sabres. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
