Description

LA has a firesale, selling many pieces to acquire picks and prospects.

Phaneuf gets bought out.

Then with additional capspace, sign players to 1 year deals to fill the roster and make them expendable at the deadline. Ennis has speed to add to lineup and Gunnarsson is steady option to fill minutes on the backend.

LA also has a top 5 pick that could slot into thier lineup potentially.

Trades

LAK

Lucic, Milan
McLeod, Ryan
2019 2nd round pick (EDM)

EDM

Kovalchuk, Ilya
2019 4th round pick (CGY)

Additional Details:

It might suck to take on Lucic's deal; but maybe the incentive added to it is worth it for LA. Kovalchuk, a more proven goal scorer, moves to a team with playoff intentions and has the opportunity to play alongside McDavid or Draisaitl

LA also retains 40% of Kovalchuk's contract (2.5 Million)

LAK

Hutton, Carter
Murray, Brett [Reserve List]
Samuelsson, Mattias [Reserve List]
2019 1st round pick (STL)

BUF

Quick, Jonathan
2019 4th round pick (LAK)

Additional Details:

LA moves on from Quick as they shift towards their rebuild.

Buffalo, who wants to turn things around, trade their extra 1st, a former 2nd round pick and former 4th round pick. Also dealing Hutton to act as a fill in keeper for LA during their rebuild.

LAK

Santini, Steven
Zetterlund, Fabian
2019 2nd round pick (NJD)

NJD

Toffoli, Tyler

Additional Details:

Get value for Toffoli before he hits UFA. NJ would likely be interested in adding a scorer to prove to Hall that they are serious about winning.

LAK

Bracco, Jeremy
Marleau, Patrick
2020 6th round pick (TOR)

TOR

2019 3rd round pick (WSH)

Additional Details:

Kings have picks to spare and capspace to fill following the other trades. Giving up a late 3rd when they already have 7 selections before it to take on one year of Marleau, and Bracco, a dynamic prospect that fits what LA needs in their lineup.

I like those trades. Nice job on them.

Find it funny how all of your middle-6 wingers played for TOR in 2018-19 season though

Funny how Hutton plays better than Quick and yet Sabres add to get him and his bad contract

I'll admit, that one was the one I was conflicted with the most regarding fair value. I probably overvalue Quick in this....maybe LA could add more or Buffalo could remove a prospect, but here is my logic behind it.

I think Hutton showed, especially during the Sabres collapse that he isn't capable of being a #1 netminder and while Quick does have injury history, he is a winner, and one bad season on a horrendous LA team does not discredit his ability IMO, so I think acquiring him makes sense for a Buffalo team wanting to change their fortunes. Buffalo also has two NHL keepers and with Quick coming in with this deal I felt one had to go back the other way and I think Buffalo would rather keep Ulmark.
