Take Jones out and we can possibly talk otherwise there isn’t a point for Verbeek to waste his time

A future 2nd doesn't even buy you out of Muzzin's deal my dude, sure as hell not throwing Jones in on top of that. Ducks decline.

You'd be lucky to move Holl for FC's at this point, you probably have to pay to move him unless he is cap/warm body going the other way on a deal.

Columbus does not need another expensive winger. Any trade involving Marner Toronto will loose because you need to target roster players coming back that can help you win now. Any team that has those kind of players don't want to be stripped of their depth to take on an 11 mil winger. They've seen the recipe play out in Toronto with being too top heavy and they don't want to repeat the same mistake.

So close to beating you to the comment.

If you switch out Robertson for Niemela (or Liljegren but that's unlikely) and Vancouver could accept if they choose the rebuild route, however that seems unlikely

Both of you boys were quicker on the trigger, as usual.
