Pending trade call, Eric Staal is going to NYR.

Staal has signed his NMC/NTC waiver to go to NYR.

Eric Staal is now out of Carolina's lineup, meaning the deal to the Rangers will happen.

#Rangers can add $4.711M in a trade today. If no one goes back to #Canes, CAR would need to retain at least ~43% ($3.55M) of Staal’s $8.25M.

Assuming Staal to NYR gets done – and it’s not done yet – I’d expect CAR to get couple of picks (2nd rounders?) and a prospect. Stay tuned.

NYR/CAR closing in on Eric Staal deal

All indications point toward Eric Staal going to the New York Rangers. Approvals required, but seems likely.

Staal, BTW, has AAV of $8.25M but is paid $9.5M in salary this season. He has full NMC/NTC but I’d be shocked if he wouldn’t waive for NYR.

If CAR and NYR complete a trade for Eric Staal, I would have to think CAR retains salary, possibly to the max of 50 per cent.

NYR doesn’t have a 2016 1st Rd pick, and if they traded their 2017 1st would make it five straight years without one https://t.co/ECrCnMbBEY

CAR-NYR trade talks for Eric Staal in a nutshell: CAR wants 1st rd pick; NYR adamant about not giving up 1st rd pick. So…

…can NYR and CAR find another way to get it done that is palatable to both teams?
