Could the Rangers Trade for Ryan Reaves?

On the New Ice City podcast, David Schoen of the Las Vegas Review-Journal speculates that the Rangers might ask the Golden Knights about trading for Ryan Reaves (49:00).

Schoen cites the fact that Reaves was a healthy scratch for the last two playoff games for Vegas and the fact that new Rangers’ coach Gerard Gallant was a big proponent of Reaves’ play when he was a coach of the Golden Knights.

The Rangers have been open about their desire to add a different element to their lineup, which Ryan Reaves definitely would bring, though he has lost a step from his Vegas days.

Reaves is signed for one more season at a cap hit of $1.75 million.
