As we know, the New York Rangers season is a disaster.

Even though the chances of seeing them make the playoffs are slim, with a core like this, it might only take a major trade to revitalize the troops.

In the latest episode of Spittin’ Chiclets, a podcast hosted among others by Ryan Whitney and Paul Bissonnette, the latter mentioned something interesting on this topic.

The former tough guy noted that the Rangers’ GM, Chris Drury, would do well to do whatever it takes to acquire J.T. Miller’s services.

By clicking on the YouTube link below, it will take you directly to the excerpt about the Rangers.

Bissonnette mentioned that he regularly hears about a link between Miller and the Rangers.

Adding a player like Miller would undoubtedly help the Rangers.

But you know the saying: to receive, you must give.

In New York, Mika Zibanejad is disappointing many this season, with only six goals to his name.

Still in the podcast, the idea of offering Mike Zibanejad as a trade base was brought up and it would make a lot of sense.

The Rangers need changes, and Miller remains an excellent versatile and physical player, while Zibanejad needs a change of scenery.

In Vancouver, there seems to be real friction between Miller and Elias Pettersson, and trading one of the two could be positive.

Additionally, both players have similar long-term contracts (8 million for Miller and 8.5 million for Zibanejad)

Of course, Zibanejad will not be enough, but Drury has something to offer to add value.

There needs to be change among the Rangers.

In Brief

– Another goal for Ovechkin. Clearly, he has a mission in mind.

– Poor Marc-André Fleury, who has now allowed Ovechkin to score for the 41st time in his career.

– Zach Werenski puts himself in good company.
