  5. 2024 1st round pick (DET)
Additional Details:
Settle down, Sally. Vrana is a low risk/high reward piece for SJ that helps DET's cap situation for Meier. He isn't a value piece here. Zadina plays well with Vrana, and is on the edge of a breakout. Buch is a B+ prospect. The 1st is unprotected. The 2nd is likely in the late 30s.

Me personally, I really don't want to move anymore 2023 picks. I would give a 3rd in 2024 for him. But Lou is a old and senile, so who knows with this dope will do next.

-If we're using the Horvat trade as a baseline, I can't hate this value for SJ. Zadina is a young, roster-ready player; Vrana is a bigger cap hit than Beauvillier was but has better upside in my eyes, and the 1st/2nd/prospect package is fine. I could see San Jose maybe looking for a little older/closer to NHL prospect, but that's the only quibble. Pretty fair value based on this year's trade market, in my eyes.

-Again, fair value - Edmonton might need some retention on this, though, their cap situation is tight. I think Maata gives them a solid DFD which is something they seem to need right now.

-You can use this retention slot on Maata, IMO - Isles have enough space to take on Kubalik's deal. Personally I'd be annoyed at giving up a 2nd for a guy I wanted Lou to sign over the summer, but c'est la vie - Kubalik would be an upgrade over Josh Bailey as an offensively minded winger that the team desperately needs to help juice an incredibly awful PP. Scratch Panik from the trade as well - he's only a $250K penalty so the cap savings is negligible, and he's playing in Europe this year - so he wouldn't be able to be a healthy scratch for the Wings this year. EDITING: I'd rather keep the 2023 2nd if the Isles wind up giving up this year's 1st; if the cost is a 2nd I'd want a condition that is inverse of whatever the Vancouver condition is (ie, Detroit gets the 2nd rounder in the year that the Isles don't give up their 1st.)

-I like the value but if I'm Pittsburgh I counter with Kapenen & the pick for Suter, no retention - saves you another slot if you want to move another guy (Sundqvist?), and I think Heinen is more valuable as a depth guy to the Penguins than Kap. Willing to defer to Pens fans on that, though.

-I think Erne only gets that 4th with retention, but I can see teams having interest.

Simply not enough for Meier.

Buch is worthless, Vrana is in the AHL (and far more valuable to us in the system right now), Zadina is a middle 6 forward that's bordering scratch worthy, and the 1st isn't even a 2023 pick.

Meier will get a serious haul with multiple 1sts or legitimate prospect/roster players. This is scraps.

Kubs is on pace for 58 points, Kubs for 1.5 years @ $1,500,000 is worth far more than Panik who's a worthless dump that we're already retaining on and a 2nd round pick. Kubs should at least get us a 2nd and 3rd round pick with retention.

Sharks pass big time.

Maatta should get us a 2nd and 3rd round pick. Maatta is better than Luke Schenn and he's going for a 2nd.

Suter and Erne trade look pretty close.
