Description
Let me know what you think. It's a way I thought of of Winnipeg capitalizing on a clearly uninterested asset that they might lose for nothing in 2 years and using him to boost into a rebuild phase.
Trades
1.
WPG
  1. Anderson, Josh ($1,815,000 retained)
  2. Dvorak, Christian ($1,468,500 retained)
  3. Hoffman, Mike ($1,485,000 retained)
Additional Details:
Winnipeg can't get fair value for PLD out of Montreal with 1 or 2 players, and he's currently killing his market value with the help of his agent. So I thought of a way to do it in aggregate.

Montreal retains 33% out of Anderson, Dvorak and Hoffman and trade all three to Winnipeg for the RFA rights of PLD.

Retained salary of MTL would be $4.7M in total

Winnipeg then takes these three players and, in turn, retain 33% of their salaries and trade them for what I assume would be generous returns.

Josh Anderson supposedly has teams calling MTL constantly. At $2.4M for the foreseeable future, Winnipeg would be able to cash in big by trading him.

Mike Hoffman is a perrenial 20 goal scorer and PP specialist. On a team that has a good powerplay, he gets 20 goals per year almost without even skating, at $2M annually, he suddenly becomes very appealing.

Christian Dvorak has a reputation as a decent 2nd line center, I don't know where he got it or how, but he does. At $2M you've got teams looking for a luxury 3rd line center salivating.

For retaining $3.1M, Winnipeg could get multiple 1st and 2nd round picks + possibly decent prospects. A good way to power a team into a rebuild.

forgot to retain on Hoffman on the last example, but you get the idea.

No one is giving up a first for Dvorak or Anderson and the Jets aren't moving Dubois for a cap dump, a player verging on a cap dump and an average 3C.

I think Chevy starts talking if the offer is Barron, Dach and a 1st.

So you think Anderson is good value at even 3.5m? Seems steep for 35 point player who probably isn't going to get better age 28 for the next five years. And you expect teams to give up a first and more?
Heck Pacioretty was given away.

Long term retention is rare, pretty sure what SJ did with Burns hasn't been done before and was a terrible move on their part, this isn't at all realistic.
