Trade doesn’t make a ton of sense for Vegas. Need a defensemen. That’s extremely rich for him as well

To be fair, I didn't think much about a trade partner. I'll swap for Boston. As for Ilya's value, it's been hotly debated but most people tend to agree that a conditional 2nd can work. Perhaps it'll go down to an unconditional 3rd. Either way, given that Scandella went for a 2nd + conditional 4th, and how hot the trade market is now, I think he can go for a conditional 2nd.

To get a 2nd round for Scandella is very impressive. I had him traded for a 5th round. Goes to show teams are paying high. Good trade by Bergevin.

I rather not get my hopes that high up. I'll be happy if he gets a conditional 2nd.
