Over the last 13 seasons, the New York Rangers have made some really good trades. Which ones do Blue Line Station’s writers like the most?

The New York Rangers have gone through a lot since Henrik Lundqvist came over from Sweden at the beginning of the 2005-2006 season. They went from a rebuild, to retooling to contending to rebuilding again over the last 13 seasons.

They didn’t reach their ultimate goal of winning a Stanley Cup, but they made one Stanley Cup Final and three Conference Finals appearances in that span.

Over those years, the team made lots and lots of major trades to bring stars in and to deal stars away. Some of them jump-started their playoff runs while others set the team up well for future success.

Recently, we asked the team here at Blue Line Station what they thought was the best deal the team made since Lundqvist was a member of the team.
