Updated New York Rangers Trade Meter 2/18/19

The NHL Trade Deadline is officially 1 week away. Based on the latest reporting here is the updated New York Rangers trade meter.

Notable changes:

Kevin Hayes, Kevin Shattenkirk, Marc Staal and Jesper Fast all dipped. Hayes dipped due to the news that Matt Duchene is almost a lock to be traded. If his return is less than expected it could set a lower market value for Hayes and may force Jeff Gorton to keep him. That scenario is still unlikely and Hayes will probably be moved for a nice package.

Alexander Georgiev is red hot and with the likelihood that Igor Shestyorkin may be coming to the Rangers next season, he could be moved for a solid mid round draft pick.

The recent play of Brendan Smith and Vlad Namestnikov has caused an uptick in trade value and their chances of being moved has increased.
