Preds pass. The Skinner contract is worse and the other pieces aren’t enough for Ekholm.

Youre getting an unprotected first and the Sabres are making a lateral move just to take a flyer on Skinner rebounding in a system where he isnt anchored to the 4th line

NSH is going to looking for a 1st+ for Ekholm (similar return to the Muzzin trade). I'd much rather stick it out with Johansen over taking Skinner's longer contract. Thompson isn't of much interest.

The 1st is nice. I didn’t realize it would be unprotected. But I still don’t think it’s enough. Johansen is still playing top 6 minutes, whereas Skinner is either 4th line or scratched. Skinner also has a NMC, which there is no guarantee he would waive (expansion draft). And then they’d also get a defenseman back that needs protection as well. The Skinner contract might be the worst one in the league right now other than Karlsson. Maybe Johansen + 3rd for Skinner $1m retained and a top 5 protected 2021 1st. But even then I don’t know. Ekholm sways the value too much in your initial deal.

He would have to waive it to be traded. Skinners production is a direct result of playing on the 4th line or being scratch, so I dont see how its a positive that Johansen is playing in the top 6. Skinner started the year getting 12 minutes a game, Kreuger just hates him, Johansen is getting opportunities and failing
