Description

So the order is :
Price gets picked by Seattle, nothing we can do.
Trade for Letang since Weber is out of play.
Nashville understands the threat, react by calling GMMB to propose a deal where Weber gets on LTIR for the remaining of the contract. That price to pay is reasonable since 5M$ on cap hit for 5 years is enormous.
Vegas is stuck with Fleury's contract, which is good, but doesn't fit with Pietrangelo's contract and also they need to resign Martinez. MTL also gets Marchessault, another contract, but gives a 1st and prospects.
Then, MB calls NSH for the remaining year of Letang's 7M contract.
For the last trade, we all know TB cap issues, so we give them 2 x 2nd for Gourde, Joseph and a 3rd.
