It’s time for another round of NHL rumours for Tuesday. The New York Rangers<\/a> have already made a couple of moves before the March 3 deadline. Vladimir Tarasenko<\/a> has already made<\/a> the switch to Broadway. The Blueshirts also reacquired<\/a> Tyler Motte<\/a> on Saturday. However, the Rangers may not be done making moves. New York could make more moves to shore up their forward depth. Today’s NHL rumours look at a possible Nick Bonino<\/a> trade or a Nick Bjugstad<\/a> trade.<\/p>\n

All NHL rumours come from the original source and are subject to change.<\/p>\n

NHL Rumours<\/h2>\n

Rangers Explore Nick Bjugstad Trade or Nick Bonino Trade<\/h3>\n

Rumour: The Athletic’s Arthur Staple said the Rangers might not be done getting forward depth. Staple pointed out the Blueshirts could go after Bjugstad now if they trade<\/a> Vitali Kravtsov<\/a> or Jake Leschyshyn<\/a> as part of the deal. New York is currently racking up more cap space and could go after Bonino. The San Jose Sharks<\/a> could also do them a favour and retain some cap space in order to make a deal happen.<\/p>\n

\n

Motte on his way to NY now, should be in the lineup tomorrow for #NYR<\/a> against Winnipeg.<\/p>\n

According to CapFriendly, #NYR<\/a> are still accruing cap space. Swapping out Kravtsov\/Leschyshyn for a 4C could work now (Bjugstad) or after they've accrued more space (Bonino w\/$ retained).<\/p>\n
