Larry Brooks mentioned Radulov as a possible rental earlier this week. (NY Post)
Radulov, 35, has three goals and 15 assists this season in 52 games for Dallas, with a minus-15 rating in 14:52 per game.
Radulov had 12 points in 11 games last season for Dallas, 34 in 60 for Dallas in 2019-20 and back to back 72 points seasons in 2017-18 and 2018-19.
He has 64 games of playoff experience in including 8 goals and 10 assists in 27 games for Dallas in their 2020 Stanley Cup Final loss to Tampa Bay in the bubble.
Radulov is in the last year of a five-year deal that has a cap hit of $6.25 million, a no-move clause and a modified no-trade clause.
Adam Rotter: Radulov is interesting because he certainly has a history of being an impactful offensive player, but he seems like he is trending downward in his career. For a mid or late round pick, then sure, but I don’t think the Rangers should give up anything of real value for him. Dallas may look to keep him as they push for the playoffs, but on paper he would fit with the Rangers and boost the top-six.
