Breaking Down All The Latest New York Rangers' Trade Rumors The New York Rangers are looking to acquire a big fish. According to Larry Brooks of The New York Post [https://nypost.com/2024/12/06/sports/rangers-targeting-brady-tkachuk-as-midseason-revamp-begins/], the Rangers have made Ottawa Senators forward Brady Tkachuk their primary target. This comes after Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman [https://x.com/NHLNetwork/status/1864686176105582791] came out and said the Rangers have been talking with the Ottawa Senators [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/ottawa-senators/] regarding a trade. “I think Ottawa is among one of the teams that have talked to the Rangers about something there, but I think there is a lot more to,” Friedman said. The Rangers are on the verge of either trading or waiving Jacob Trouba and ESPN’s Emily Kaplan reported [https://x.com/emilymkaplan/status/1865060341228376232]that the Senators have talked to the Rangers about a possible Trouba deal. It’s unclear if these discussions included Tkachuk or not, but it would likely take a lot of assets to draw Tkachuk away from Ottawa. This season, the 25-year-old forward has recorded 13 goals, 16 assists and 29 points in 25 games while averaging 18:19 minutes.
