If you want kuzy how about you send up Dumba and Krill? Bc this is a pretty below average return for a top 15 center.

If Backstrom wants $11.5m then you let him walk and keep your other top center that is $4m less and younger and under contract longer

This makes absolutely zero sense. Why are we paying Backstrom $11.5M when Kuznetsov is younger and cheaper? And why would we trade Kuznetsov for that little in general? This is just change for the sake of change, which is literally never a good idea.

TBF, I love the 1M depth signings of Jones and Bogosian. Clever. I could see SJ buying out Jones, and when he gets going he's a great goalie. It's just been a while.
