Blueshirts and Golden Knights deal

[Burkes Boys]

Going to Broadway
Connor Carrick, $1.5m (2016-2019)
Steven Santini, $1.5m (2018-2021)
Nikolay Goldobin, $1.0m (2018-2021-EL)
SDP Round 2 - 2019  (from *)

Going to Vegas
Johnny Boychuk, $8.0m (2016-2021)
Remi Elie, $0.9m (2018-2021-EL)

Doing a deal to get some depth on D. Johnny's been good to us but it's time to move on and wish him well in sin city. We like the Carrick and Santini and feel they have good upside. Vegas to confirm. Thanks All4U2nv!

Vegas accepts. The opportunity to land a top pair defenceman without giving up any core players from our team is a no brainer for our organization. Thanks NYR/Burkes Boys!

On the surface one could argue Vegas is getting the best player in this trade. However, given Boychuk's significant cap hit for several more years I would consider this a fairly even trade. Rangers acquire youth and potential in exchange for a proven veteran scoring defender going to the Golden Knights.

It's a good deal for both sides. VGK gets a vet blueliner. NYR gets some fringe players and cap space.
