Description

Trades are not complete, more of a concept of MTL trading down in the draft to get a top 4 LD that can help now and still be able to draft a young LD that could still be available later in the 1st rd (the example I'm using is Heinola, but it could be someone else).

Obviously another asset(s) would still need to be sent, but they would be significantly less valuable than just trying to acquire the players targeted outright.

Reason for NYI, CGY, LAK to trade up to 15th is to acquire an offensive winger/center that would not be available later in the 1st rd (examples are Podkolzin, Lavoie, etc.)

another team that could be a candidate for this kind of trade. WSH at 25th overall (would they be interested in moving Orlov?)

The only one that may work would be the LAK trade because they get rid of $4m - I don't think it is enough value for the other two teams.

Yeah, I believe MTL would need to add in all 3 honestly. but the pieces they'd have to add wouldn't have to be big pieces compared to trying to acquire those players outright.

The only one I would want to do is the Leddy one. He's the youngest of the 3. Brodie is really good but is older and Martinez is much older and not nearly as good as the two other guys IMO.

well Brodie and Leddy are only 1 year apart. I agree Martinez is getting a little late (will be 32 by the time the season starts)

Something along the lines of:
15th + Lehkonen for 23rd + Leddy?
15th + 3rd rd pick (77th) + Hudon for 26th + Brodie?
15th + 2nd rd pick (50th) for 22nd + 2nd rd pick (33rd) + Martinez?

I guess it also depends on who's still available at 15th. If a bunch of the projected Dman have already been picked, you don't do this kind of deal, same for if a top projected player falls in their lap at 15th like Cozens. but if there are still plenty of D prospects available at 15th and you know one or more will still be there towards the end of the 1st rd, I think this kind of trade should be taken into consideration.

15th for 22nd + Martinez straight up?

there is no way the Isles are trading leddy to move up 8 spots and a 3rd line wing. Leddy is the piece their using to either grab a really good futures package or the top 6 winger they need
