Description

Some trades I want to test here, just checking interest and value for teams involved. I could definitely see the Coyotes wanting a prospect as well, but I figured I would start with this offer and see where it goes.

Trades

Additional Details:

So this is a bit of a mashup of trades I've seen on here previously and will likely need tweaking.
Arizona motivation is saving money: Schmaltz's cap hit is 5.85 Mil AAV but his actual money is significantly more.
Coyotes desperately will need a RHD
and Kessel is nearing the end of his contract.
Aquiring Parise will offset the actual money Kessel would have made this year but helps the Coyotes hit the cap floor while spending less assuming the trade is made before Kessel's bonus is due. After next season Parise is owed 4 million total over the last 3 years in actual money.

ARI

Dumba, Matt
Parise, Zach
2021 1st round pick (PIT)
2021 3rd round pick (MIN)

Additional Details:

Parise excepts trade to continue getting consistent playing time and AZ's tax savings.
Phil agrees to waive to MN for a chance to win.

MIN

Additional Details:

Tage is included to help offset money since I'm guessing signing Fiala will cost more than 4 million AAV.

That's excessive value for Eichel. And Kessel already nixed a deal here, and I have no clue why we would want him anyway. That roster is maybe marginally better at best for the next year, maybe two, and then the future is worse.

You don't think Kessel wants to win and Parise wants to play?

There are a lot better teams to waive to if he was interested in leaving the warm weather of Arizona for a 3rd ring

He already won two Cups, I genuinely don't think he cares anymore. Beyond that, if he wants to win he's not coming here.
And again, he already said no to coming here when Fenton tried getting him. What would have changed his mind since then?
