Description

Okay. This is another idea/option for Buffalo.

Winnipeg
They need Defensemen & Risto has been rumored to go there for a long time. It finally happens because they trade Copp & a 4th for their Defensemen they know can be on the ice for long shifts & play offensively.

Penguins
They are going for a cup run. They trade Jarry for Johansson to add more depth on the wing & also get some late round picks.

Bolts
Bolts need to shed cap. They can't keep Gourde & Cirelii. With Cirelli's playoff performance they opt to keep him. They trade Gourde for picks & prospects that won't go against their cap.

UFA additions
Jesper Fast
Jon Merrill
Sam Gagner

Rookies move up & Cozens gets development on second line.

That pens trade is brutal. Want Jarry? We want the 8th pick in the draft. Otherwise Murray is available. Pens don’t need wing depth. Guentzel, Zucker, McCann, Poulin, Tanev, ZAR, Simon, Kapanen, Rust, Hornqvist, Lafferty. 11 is already overkill. We don’t need a 12th

I think you're overpaying for Gourde here. Haven't heard anything about Asplund but you can probably take him out and it still works.

Oh my. Jarry is far from worth a top 10 pick.

In regards to your trades @edwardtedbrady:

Not enough value at all coming back for a top 4 D. Bad trade for us

Not enough value to nab a good goalie, it'd be Johansson, a B prospect, and a mid round pick at least

Terrible overpayment for a decent player on a bad contract. They would pay us to take him. No way we give em Mitts, Asplund, and 2 picks
