I don't disagree with your desire to get Lehkonen off the books, but (1) he isn't going to bring back a second, especially one that is going to be 36th overall, and (2) Anaheim doesn't need him.

You're giving assets to get rid of Alzner's contract (I guess because you're 55k under the cap), but you've got 3 players that needs to be sent down to be compliant to the 23 man roster plus Juulsen has done literally nothing to command a 2M$ salary.
I don't mind the signings (Even if you're on the rich side on some) but Romanov's not coming here to be a 7th dman so Mete and Kulak becomes your two healthy scratch on defense and for the sake of dev you send KK/Poehling to Laval and bring up anyone else. That clears out 3.72M$ which is enough to keep Alzner (3.55M$ burried) and my early 2nd rounder (Which is not enough for someone to take that contract btw).

"He SHOULD be capable of alleviating pressure on Price."
-At 4M$ a year he better be a freaking decent backup.

Not stated but pretty sure Anaheim's a placeholder as they're the first one in the trade block.

I agree 100%.
No need to waste a precious high 2nd round pick in a deep draft.
I also think you shoudn't give such a big contract to Gustafsson.
Let Romanov play with Petry, and play as much as possible.
The guy will be a perfect 2nd pair D, maybe not next year, but he'll need to play enough to become one.

Wow, this is horrible. That Gustafsson contract is disgusting, Domi & Toffoli are overpaid, and you’re giving $2 million to a player that has played a total of 37 games in the last 2 seasons. And giving up Lehkonen to move Alzner is horrible asset management, since Alzner’s buyout cap hit isn’t bad whatsoever.

Also agree, he's been a one year wonder but came down to earth pretty quickly and traded for a 3rd rounder, I don't think that brings him a long term 3M$+ contract.
