One year after the trade both the Ottawa Senators and New York Rangers have reason to be happy with the trade. There were picks involved with the trade but let’s stick to the players. At first glance when this trade was announced I was upset. The players seemed fairly equal but Zibanejad was younger. However, as time has passed I’ve become much more pleased with the deal.
Rangers Outlook
Both teams got what they needed in the deal so let’s start with the Rangers. The Rangers are a team that is exiting their championship window but still has some good young pieces.
