Ideal and Fairly Realistic Deadline

Reported ask is a second and a prospect. Future middle-six center in Harrison, 2025 2nd (the only 2nd rounder the Bruins have in the next three drafts) and a fourth this year to make up for losing out on a 2023 second

Barbashev is a versatile and hard-working player who I think is a better Trent Frederic right now. Should fit well into Monty's system and can play up and down the lineup in case of injury.

Smith has to go for cap purposes. Nashville has stated that they may be selling if their current trajectory holds, and they have a ton of cap space. They return Smith to his most successful tenure, and get a first for their troubles.

Reported price a third round pick plus. Schenn provides excellent depth on the right side and could play in the bottom four in case of injury or if Monty just wants a different look.

Canucks get their third round pick as asked, and the "plus" is Koppanen. I'd be a bit heartbroken if he were to get moved out, as he looked awesome in his stint with the big club this year, but his value will certainly reflect that. Huge 200-foot pivot with solid enough skating to be effective in the NHL, elite face-off taker and penalty killer. Again, would hate to see this kid go, but to win a cup I think it'd be worth it.
