Normal course of business for players. 99% of the time the player and team come to an agreement before the arbitration hearing, it almost serves as a push and deadline for each side to get a deal done.
I'll add one comment, I think it is a mistake to have both Lindgren and Trouba on the team next season (one of them will be overpaid for the 3rd pair). I would look to trade one, and I think Kakko should be available also. Rangers need size and a legit 3rd line C.
I saw something that Utah was interested in trading for the rights to Lindgren, but the Rangers want to keep him. Sounds like our main targets are Zegras, Vatrano, Ehlers and Keller.
Keller lmao! Why would Arizona trade by far their best player who is like an 80 point guy on that team?
