Deck Shuffle

It hurts to lose Kaut's ELC but I love that trade for the Avs. Thats an all-in cup run move

Its mostly a cap dump move for VGK but it allows them to sign Petro. It puts pressure on Glass to step into a top 6 role but moving 1 year of Stastny for cost controlled player in Compher is a solid long term move and he fits the teams identity pretty well. I don't think a lot of people know about Kaut but I think he would be a really smart cap efficient move with big time upside. Also we had some wings have rougher playoffs so it hurts to move them but Tuch is good enough to get in the top 6. Rather have depth on D than on wings

Also Stasnty started in Colorado so I thought that was a fun re-match

Avs and Devils definitely accept. I don’t know if Pens want to give up young DeSmith for 35 year old Fleury though.

Its just been one of those rumors forever that PIt might be open to brining him back. Giving up a 1st and he is still good enough where he should be able to go somewhere and back up goalie replacements should be easily had in UFA or other sources. Its a lil crazy but very plausible imo

Everyone of these trades are bad. Colorado is the only one close but that Pittsburgh trade is awful
