In the NY Post, Larry Brooks writes that Glen Sather is prepared to offer two players from the Rangers roster and two prospects in a deal to get Rick Nash.

He writes that Scott Howson continues to ask for two players from the group of Chris Kreider, Ryan McDonagh and Derek Stepan.

Brooks writes that Howson has attempted to create a bidding war with other teams for Nash, but those other teams, Philly, Ottawa and Carolina, are not on his preferred list of destinations.

He also adds that Sather has been interested in acquiring Nash since the 2010-11 season when Howson called to inquire about Michael Del Zotto who had been sent to Hartford.
