How Acquiring Rick Nash Is Still Paying Off For The New York Rangers 8-Years Later | NHL Trade Trees

so I've been reading the comments and you want longer videos on the trading tree, are you okay? Well, because I get it, you've been getting little snacks lately, you've been getting some shorter ones that I

still

think are pretty interesting, but it's just not as long as, say, the Eric Lindros trading tree video that we did that lasts more than 40 minutes. Today's trading tree is not on par with Eric Lindros' trading tree, although very few are, but it is much bigger than you think. back in the day when the columbus blue jackets

going oh my god the names at the bottom should be read under a microscope you better thank freelance editor tom for putting this together now we better thank them, let's not waste any more time, let's take a look at

rick

nash

's trading tree.

By the way, I was choosing a part of the basement to record this video and I realized that I don't really have any

rangers

. or blue jacket stuff, I have a teddy bear that I got in Columbus at the all-star game in 2015. I have Mark Messier. I have Henrik Lundqvist, who was also

trade

d. Oh wait, no, sorry, the Rangers lost him for nothing. Well, actually, less than nothing. because they bought him sorry too soon lundqvist is not the franchise player we are talking about here we are talking about rick nash during the 2001 2002 season rick nash was a phenomenon with the ohl's london knights 32 goals 40 assists for 72 points in only 54 games ohl in his draft year the knights didn't go all the way in the ohl playoffs they only played 12 games but in those 12 games nash scored 10 goals and 19 points he wasn't exactly the reason they lost and with the first overall pick In 2002, Columbus Blue Jacket said, "You like to carry teams, right?" But it wasn't always Columbus' choice to make a strange draft trade in June 2002 between then-Columbus general manager Doug McLean. , and panthers general manager rick dudley, the trade was this the Panthers traded the first overall pick to the Columbus Blue Jacket in exchange for the third overall pick that's what doesn't make sense the Panthers didn't get any of this no, not entirely true the asterisk there is that the Panthers had the option to trade first round players with Columbus in 2003, that was the next draft, the problem with that is that the Panthers would eventually get the first overall pick in 2003, for what they weren't going to trade with Columbus, of course, they eventually changed that. pick the pittsburgh penguins, but that's a different trading tree for another day.

The important thing is that the Columbus Blue Jackets rise from third to first. They have the first overall pick and they use it to select Rick Nash and he was good, he was pretty. well rick nash as a rookie in 2002 2003 he had 17 goals 22 assists 39 points in 74 games with columbus the following season as a sophomore in 80 games he had 41 goals and if you want to talk about an absolute island he had 41 goals 16 assists rick nash, who was a teenager when that season started, he scored 41 goals, his next closest teammate to scoring goals was david vaborney with 22, trevor latowski was third with 15. and you know there was a scout out there like ah, rick nash should spend more, yes, me.

I'm sure if he had any choice, those 41 goals in his second year were enough for Rick Nash to win the Maurice Rocket Richard Trophy as the NHL's leading scorer. You may remember it as the year the Rocket split into three. in a way because three different guys scored 41 goals, they were rick nash, jerome mcginla and elia kovalchuk after the 0.405 lockout. Nash only scored 31 goals, but that's because he only played 54 games, he actually had a 47 goal pace, if he was healthy Nash would only score. 27 goals the following season, but that would be the last time they missed the 30 goal plateau with the Columbus Blue Jacket after that 38 40 33 32 30.

None of those teams were good, none of that, there was one during the season 2008-2009. The Columbus Blue Jackets were helped by a rookie goaltender named Steve Mason. You may have heard of him to get an idea of ​​how young Steve Mason was during that season. He is 32

years

old. Now this rookie in his 20s has played 61 games for the Blue Jacket. That season he posted a 9 16 save percentage and during that playoff series, Rick Nash would tie for the team lead in scoring with three points in four games, which tells you the whole story, doesn't it?

This loss was becoming extremely boring for Rick Nash, who was no longer a kid, so during the 2011-12 season the Blue Jackets did something drastic and acquired Jeff Carter from the Philadelphia Flyers. That deal was terrible and if you're thinking, wow, I'd love to see that. We already did that commercial tree video and you can watch it right here on this YouTube channel, just type in jeff carter. The trade tree talks about how the Blue Jackets lost that deal twice and basically handed the Kings two cups. I'm pretty. I hesitate to hand out winners and losers on these things, but yeah, so the Blue Jackets get Jeff Carter to keep Rick Nash happy, end up giving him to the Kings anyway and that was it the summer Rick Nash was traded to NY.

Rangers and the trade was as follows: Artem Anisimov, Tim Erickson, Brandon Dubinsky and a first-round pick in 2013 to the New York Rangers in exchange for Steven Delisle, Rick Nash and a third-round pick in 2013. So you trade a guy like Rick Nash. Obviously trying to build for the future, Colón obtained some pieces that could help with his future. Artemini Samov was a second-round pick, but that was in 2006. He was more of an established NHL player, pretty good, like the sixth half, Tim Erickson, a defenseman. He was a first-rounder in 2009, the 23rd overall pick, and was a late bloomer who never blossomed.

He played with the Rangers and would

later

play a bit for the Blue Jackets and Blackhawks and even a cup of coffee with the Leafs, but he never stayed longer than 31 games, which was the most he played in a season. He played in the ahl for several

years

until a couple of years ago when he decided to screw it. I'm going to the holiday show in Sweden, where. he spent the last two seasons i said it right i always say vax joe but i'm sure that's wrong brandon dubinsky now that's not a prospect he's an established nhl player he's a guy that's generally good for a few 20 goals and more than a hundred penalties. minutes in a season but during 2011-12 he had a down season with only 10 goals so the blue jackets went down a bit that's good and the first round pick in 2013 was the 19th overall pick now every time We see a draft pick in these trade

trees

, especially in the first round, we think, oh my gosh, this could go on forever.

Well, that's only if you're right and you're 19th overall in 2013. The Columbus Blue Jackets, right? They drafted Kirby Reichel 19th overall and he played 43 games in the nhl which is more than uri but he doesn't have great value with the 19th overall pick especially when the 20th overall pick the next pick it was anthony mantha and it wasn't just mantha who was also available the 23rd overall pick, andre burakovsky, 26th shea. Theodore, the blue jackets, would end up trading Kirby Reichel directly to the Toronto Maple Leafs for defenseman Scott Harrington, who the Leafs got in the Phil Kessel deal.

Another trade tree you can find on this channel was also supposed to have the Leafs waive a conditional. He was chosen in the deal, but the conditions were ultimately not met, so they stuck with him. It was just a trade rifle for Harrington Brandon Dubinsky and people talk about it now and we'll get there, but it had great value for the blue. jackets for several years started during lockout shortened 2013 season only plays 29 games only had two goals but had 18 assists so 20 points in 29 games not bad next season in 76 games so far healthier had 16 goals and 50 points and the Columbus Blue Jackets made the playoffs and no, the Columbus Blue Jackets didn't do the same against the Pittsburgh Penguins during that first round, but they scared them a little and Brandon Dubinsky was a holy terror, I'm sure He had six points in six games, which tied him for the lead among Blue Jacket forwards in scoring, but most notably, he drove Sidney Crosby crazy on the rest of the Penguins with the way he was tied for the team leadership among forwards. stabs who actually led the blue jackets in scoring in 2013 during the playoffs seven points in six games jack johnson actually who is a ranger now wow now the unfortunate thing with brandon dubinsky is still with the columbus blue jackets signed 5.85 million against the cap Guys who play his style don't tend to have the longest careers and, although his contract with the Columbus Blue Jacket doesn't end until the end of next season, he hasn't played a game with them since 2018-19, which means obviously he was never traded so we can go somewhere else on this tree tim erickson yes tim erickson was the late defensive prospect that never blossomed jeremy morin was the late forward prospect that never blossomed everyone seemed to go maybe we can do it he was the former 45th overall pick which is the second round 82 nhl games played 28 was the most he played in the season was traded five times and this was one of them so morin is now with the jackets Columbus blues and would end up trading him. with artem anisomov who had some memorable moments with the blue jackets, does anyone remember this when he scored a goal against the rangers and the celebration sparked the fight. need him out lubinski was involved why was he thrown out of the game?

So you could argue that he was pretending to play with a gun and that's not right. The golden horn on Columbus's blue jacket is a real cannon. We're getting a little stuck here artemenissa moth was packaged with jeremy morin marco dano and corey tropp and sent to the chicago blackhawks for alex broadhurst michael palioda and brandon sod big deal alex broadhurst was traded for future considerations and for the life of us we couldn't find let's find out what those considerations were, so let's assume they were nothing michael paliota only played in two games for the columbus blue jackets had an assist has a point in the nhl that's great, but the big name there is brandon sod and the The Blue Jackets didn't give up one bit to get him because they traded away Marco Dano in this deal, a former first-round pick of theirs that they took 27th overall in 2013.

There's another guy who's just waiting, he's going to flourish, he played and he has gotten in. 141 nhl games but 45 points never lived up to that first round potential, but brandon, oh this guy, you wonder, was coming off two cups in 2013 and 2015 with the chicago blackhawks, not to mention during the playoffs of 2015, just before this exchange. He scored 11 points in 23 Stanley Cup playoff games, eight of them goals, that's probably what the Columbus Blue Jacket thought they were getting and he's going to have the best season of his career coming up, you just look at it, and the most incredible thing What he did was 53. points, which was just one more than the 52 he scored the previous season, but he scored 31 goals against 23 for the season before leading the Blue Jackets team.

The problem was that there was no hockey in the playoffs. This is not Chicago. He added 53 points. Again, next season is the 16-17 season and they make the playoffs, but only three points in five games, again, these are not the Blackhawks and you know, the Blackhawks were no longer the Blackhawks, they were not the team. who won three cups. Anyway, within six seasons, Chicago went and got it back. The Blue Jackets packaged up Brandon Sod, goalie prospect Anton Forsberg and a fifth-round pick in 2018 and sent them to the Chicago Blackhawks four, a sixth-round pick in 2017, Tyler Mott and our own Temi Panaris knowing what's going on. has turned our temi panarin makes this job crazy looking at his numbers and what he was, it's still crazy his first two seasons in the national hockey league he scored 77 and 74 points, surpassed the 30 goal mark twice and won the rookie of the year award. in front of connor mcdavid man and they found him completely undrafted money this guy is going to sign with the chicago blackhawks and they leave we hope you're good and then he was and then they gave him away he had seven points in seven games in his first career in the playoffs in 2016, but only one in four in 2017 and the blackhawks just did well, that doesn't hold up, we have to do something ridiculous and people said, ah, well Bernard, now he's going to the blue jackets, we.

We'll see how he does when he doesn't have Patrick Kane to pass to and then he went on to set career highs, assists and points the next season with 82 and then did it again thenext season with 87 points and the blue jackets. Made the playoffs both years and Benaren scored over a point per game in both runs, seven points in six games and eleven points in ten. It was as advertised for the Blue Jackets, Brandon Sod is undoubtedly still a good player. He's contributed 20. more goals in each of the last two seasons, but he's no Tammy Pinard Man and one of the biggest defenses in this trade was fine because of the length of the contract and the cap and all that the Blackhawks are going to get more out of this than Columbus and Mira, Bernard just goes for a walk and he did.

He may have been lost this offseason, but Brandon Sod was actually traded to the Colorado Avalanche, so he's not in Chicago either. Now I think it's good to pause for a second because we are less. more than half of this trade tree and how many trades we've talked about already, sometimes the trade tree goes like if you ever see fireworks and there's an explosion and then a bunch of sparks go over here and explode, that's what Well, there was the initial rick. nash trait, then the big bang happened to acquire brandon sut, then the big bang happened trading brandon sod and getting our tammy pinard and on the blue jacket side of this trade tree there is one more, a fourth big bang , the 2020 Stanley Cup playoffs saw the Tampa Bay Lightning take home the Stanley Cup, the 2019 playoffs did not and in part because of this trade, the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Using the sixth round pick they got in the Panoram deal, they selected Jonathan Davidson and then traded him in a package that included another prospect, Vitale Abramov, a 2019 first-round pick and a 2020 conditional first-round pick to the Senators. from ottawa by prospect julius bergman and matt showerine i can hear producer draw like a colorado avalanche fan just saying boo the columbus blue jackets had a star potentially leaving town and they wanted to make a big splash before he leaves out. Have we heard this before that the blue jackets don't know? if pennaran is going to stay and it ended up no and they don't know if sergey babrowski is going to stay and it ended up no so they tried and they acquired matt duchene and they didn't even end up because they took julius bergman, who they got along with, with matt duchene , they packaged him with a fourth rounder and a seventh rounder and traded him to the New York Rangers, who we'll come back to in a minute for Adam Mcquaid and Mcquaid ended up being an awkward guy. he was in form in Columbus and only played 14 games for them, he didn't make a single game in the playoffs, but he had playoff experience and the Blue Jackets there is just no tomorrow, they are trading every pick they have to try and win this one year the problem was the Columbus Blue Jackets along with their Tammy Pinard along with Matt Duchene they almost lost but almost missing is extraordinarily different than missing because the Columbus Blue Jackets hold on as soon as they make the playoffs they face the Tampa Bay Lightning monster in first round tampa they just do what they want they are up three nothing after the first period they are going to win this series in three games except they failed in that game and lost game one and game two and game three and game four the clones of the blue jackets sweep the tampa bay lightning, you know, matthew shane is suffering a lot, he's had a rough few years, he scored 12 points in 23 games, while the blue jackets were fighting to hold onto a playoff spot when they arrived the playoffs, although he played 10 games and scored 10 points.

He was a big part of that team that upset the lightning bolt a few notes before we put a bow on the blue jackets side of this trade tree for now, so if you're a blue jackets fan, you're looking at this right. Now you might say wow, we have Matt Duchene because of the Rick Nash deal. No, I don't really remember that the guy connected to the Rick Nash deal in this trade who was also connected to the Duchesne deal is Jonathan Davidson, who is a recent six-round pick there. There was also another prospect in that deal, a guaranteed and a conditional first-round pick, which is why the Blue Jackets got Matt Duchene and beat the Tampa Bay Lightning in 2019 because of the Rick Nash deal all those years ago, no, but It's part of the exchange. tree and it's connected and it's fun, it's also worth noting that the conditional first rounder in that trade Columbus ended up keeping him because Matt Duchaine didn't take the blue jackets, but that pick remained controversial because it was actually from this previous draft where yarmoul keckalainen drafted someone 21st overall that people were just looking at his notes asking who the hell is this guy.

The blue jackets drafted jager chinekov 21st overall with that 2020 first rounder they would have given up for matt duchene but didn't. I have to do it because he didn't stay with Chinekov. Some projected Chinekov to hit the 70s, 80s and 90s, maybe even over 100 and got him at No. 21. It's worth noting that Chinekov doesn't look as off the board as he did on draft day that he had. a good start to the season in the khl with avengardom to conclude there is a trade on the columbus tree side that i didn't mention and it's another playoff rental the blue jackets took tyler mott who they got in the panoram deal and packaged him with yusi yokonin and sent him to the vancouver canucks in exchange for thomas vanek vanek had a pretty good rest of the regular season with columbus in a not so good playoff and then he left the team and right now if you are going to wait a The second vanic played for the Blue Jackets.

That was also news to me when I saw this. He has played for eight different NHL teams. It's kind of funny to me that this all started when the Blue Jackets could never find success in the playoffs or even in the playoffs. games for rick nash to play, but in this trade tree years

later

and in the future they would get a player or temmie pinarin who would be a key part in one of the most memorable playoff series, certainly in franchise history, but definitely in modern NHL history now. What did the New York Rangers get in the Rick Nash deal?

Because there's a reason you hire a player like Rick Nash and you're trying to win the Stanley Cup. Rick Nash's first full season with the New York Rangers was not a full season in which he played. He played 44 games in the short lockout and 48 games in the 2013 season, but he had an impact 21 goals, 21 assists for 42 points in those 44 games. If you're wondering what the pace is, it's 39 goals and 39 assists in an 82-game season. The goal for us is five points in 12 games, not a big deal and the next season Rick Nash's regular season numbers were a success: 26 goals in 65 games, it seems like he can always score goals, but only the 13 assists for 39 points in the playoffs. goals, 7 assists for 10 points in 25 games, that's not breaking the doors, but he did get into 25 games.

The Rangers were cooking up something different that year and they went all the way to the Stanley Cup Final and Nash was part of those Rangers. fans, I'm sorry, but you all know how that ended. l.a alec martinez, I'm so sorry I got so close and maybe that fueled rick nash's fire to get so close and not win because during the 2014-15 season he had one. of the best seasons of his career in 79 games, being healthy helps 42 goals, which is a career high for rick nash, a guy who won the rocket richard, so he scored more that year than when he scored the most goals in the entire NHL and had 69 points.

The Rangers made another deep run and Nash was a much bigger part of that team. Five goals, 14 points in 19 games, but again they don't get there after that magical 42-goal season. The most goals Nash has ever scored in another. NHL season was 23. He never got that scoring touch in Nash's final three seasons after that 42-goal season, he saw only 67, 60 and 71 games played and in his 2017-18 season, in the 60 games he He played with the Rangers, he still had. 18 goals 10 assists 28 points he Okay, he's no longer a star, but he's a player. There's something there and the Boston Bruins agreed, so they went after him and it was quite a package.

The Boston Bruins acquire Rick Nash in exchange for Matt Valesky. Ryan Spooner Ryan. Lindgren is that there is more than one Ryan in this deal, a first-round pick in 2018 and a seventh-round pick in 2019. Now we know that Matt Valesky's story was important in Cat Friendly, he had a great season with Anaheim Ducks he signs. for big money in Boston he didn't live up to the deal and his role in this trade was good, he only played five games for the Rangers, spent most of his time in Ahl Ryan Spooner, that's another name, a number overall pick 45. since 2010, this is another late bloomer, when is he going to blossom?

The Rangers believe they got something out of him in his first 20 games with them. He has 16 points, he starts next season slowly, but they turned that into a spoil. The New York Rangers traded Ryan Spooner. the Edmonton Oilers directly in favor of Ryan Strome, who last season had 59 points in 70 games. It's an incredible deal for the Rangers and we keep seeing old trade

trees

popping up in this trade tree if you want to learn more about that Spooner Strom deal. appears in the jordan eberly trade tree we did recently on this channel ryan lindgren also in this deal a 2016 second round pick defenseman was a regular in the Rangers lineup last season playing in 60 games he's still only 22 years old The old room to grow, who knows what he will develop in the seventh round, is strange.

They sent that 2019 7th rounder to the Carolina Hurricanes for a 2018 7th rounder, just a quick note that I've always found the stakes to be high. In the game, it always seems to happen like halfway to the end of the draft, a team says, hey, we'll give you a quarter next year and a quarter this year because you're making a bet with that deal that you're going to be better. that last year or you won't suck because if you suck then that pick will be high in the round and you will somehow lose spots in a 31 team league, the New York Rangers and Carolina Hurricanes. picked 216th overall in back-to-back drafts, so no harm, no foul, the kind of thing that's only interesting if you're a nerd and that's why I found it so interesting.

The last part of this agreement is important. The Rangers packaged the first round pick from the Boston Bruins with a second round pick, making them the 26th and 48th overall picks in 2018 to move up to 22nd in 2018, where they selected Saint Paul Minnesota defenseman Keiondre Miller. , six foot three and over 200 pounds playing in college. from Wisconsin, the Rangers expect big things from Keiondre Miller, but remember the Rangers got three things from Columbus in this deal and one of them was a third round pick. The Rangers used that third rounder in 2013. Now we go back in time to select Pavo.

Buchnevich is not a superstar, but he is a guy who is always on his roster. He scored a career-high 46 points last season. Buchnevich is part of the Rangers and this is something we talked about in another trade tree we did in this channel ryan mcdonough trade tree the rangers made that deal with the montreal canadians all those years ago because what happened there the rangers from new

york

they traded scott gomez and got ryan mcdonough in exchange now in that case the rangers were the selling team but they just got rich with mcdonough and years later the rangers become really good and compete for the stanley cup and win They get really close and then they start watching the sunset on their computer, so what do they do?

Rangers trade Ryan Mcdonough to Tampa. Bay Lightning for a lot of things that will make them good in the future to me, this is just another example of the Bruins getting a guy to make his shot well, seeing the writing on the wall and then taking a hit from futures that only make them better pavel boochnavich that's a little different it's them choosing between the blue jackets and beating it but ryan lindgren ryan strome keiondre miller those are the rangers just being smart remember earlier in the trade tree when I talked about it being the main part of a deal and they're just being a guy stephen delisle uh stephen delisle i think that's how you pronounce his name he never played in an nhl game but the rangers got him from the columbus blue jackets and he's part of this trade tree and he keeps getting traded, you want to know who he got traded for, okay get ready because this is going to be the quick round.

Stephen Delau was a former fourth round defenseman, he played a lot of games in the echl, the ahl, he played in frankfurt. germany last season, but he never had success in the nhl, so if you went to the columbus blue jackets and said would you like steven delisle to come back, they might say we'll think about it, but then you might say hmm, okay,Let me rephrase that. would you like steven delisle and marion gabric uh your answer might be different that's when the new york rangers packaged stephen delisle with marion gabrick and blake parlett they sent them to the colón blue jackets four derrick brassard derek dorsett john moore and a sixth pick round in 2014 and you're about to see why this is the fast round.

The New York Rangers later end up packing Derek Broussard with a seventh-round pick in 2018 and sending him to the Ottawa Senators in exchange for a second running back in 2018 and Mika Sabana. Jad Zabana's jab for Brassard is pretty bad, but they also got a second rounder, oh but the Rangers don't hold on to that second rounder in 2018, they package him with a seventh rounder in 2018 and send him to the Detroit Red. wings for brendan smith who the rangers got from the detroit red wings and signed him to a giant contract before deciding almost immediately that we shouldn't have done that and made him a healthy scratch derek dorsett was a new york ranger for a while until they traded He sent him to the Vancouver Canucks in exchange for a third-round pick in 2014, which ended up being Keegan Iverson. john moore was a big name for the new york rangers for a while and ended up packaged with anthony duclear who was also a big name for the rangers for a while and a first rounder in 2016 and a second rounder in 2015 and sent to the coyotes from Arizona in exchange for defenseman Keith Yandle Chris Summers and a fourth-round pick in 2016.

Later, Yandle would end up being traded to the Florida Panthers in exchange for a sixth- and fourth-round pick. It should be noted that in 2016 with that sixth-round pick round the New York Rangers selected a goaltender named Tyler Wall who is sick the fourth round pick they got ended up sending them to the San Jose Sharks in exchange for another fourth round pick in 2017 and a sixth round pick in 2017 and the sixth round Of the Rangers they got her from Columbus in this deal they packaged with Ben Ferrero and sent to the Minnesota Wild for Justin Falk, wait a second, when did New York do that? the rangers have justin falk are you wondering no, it's not that justin faulk it's this justin faulk his name is just spelled differently and it's also not the same person steve why was that the quick round?

I'll tell you, okay, the New York Rangers acquire Rick Nash from the Columbus Blue Jackets Easy and then they send him to the Boston Bruins Easy and part of that package is Ryan Spooner and then Ryan Spooner has traded straight up for Ryan Stohm Easy. Nothing is shoehorned in there, but the New York Rangers didn't get Derek Broussard and therefore Mika Zabana Jad because of Steven Delisle, who they got. the blue jackets and then they brought it back they got it for marion gabric which wasn't part of the original trade here it's shoehorned in it's just for fun and for any ranger fans right now that isn't a screw i mean that the rangers have make us a bandages ad because of rick nash, you don't need to shoehorn him, you don't need to say that because the Rangers did very well without having to invent that, they took and still have Ryan Strome out of this trade tree. they pulled and still have ryan lindgren from this trade tree they pulled and still have pavel buchenevich from this trade tree and keandre miller is about to start his nhl career and friends i think he's going to be pretty good and not to mention the rangers had for several years, Rick Nash, so what did you think of this trade giveaway?
