Description
This is definitely an optimistic look at a selling team, but I don't think it's too unreasonable to happen. I don't expect all of these deals to happen, moreover, I doubt the Hawks team will look this awful after the deadline. Obviously depends on Kane and Toews wanting out.
Trades
1.
CHI
  1. Holl, Justin
  2. Niemelä, Topi
  3. 2023 6th round pick (TOR)
  4. 2024 1st round pick (TOR)
Additional Details:
1st round pick is lottery protected. Obviously, the return depends on whether Holl blocks a trade to Chicago. Kerfoot could be added to deal in order to make Toronto cap compliant.
TOR
  1. Lafferty, Sam
  2. McCabe, Jake ($2,000,000 retained)
  3. 2023 3rd round pick (DAL)
Additional Details:
While the cost is high, the Leafs get two good and affordable depth pieces with term.
2.
CHI
  1. Bourgault, Xavier
  2. 2023 1st round pick (EDM)
  3. 2024 4th round pick (EDM)
Additional Details:
Lottery protected pick. 4th round pick goes to 3rd team involved, who retains 25% of Kane's contract.
EDM
  1. Kane, Patrick ($5,250,000 retained)
  2. 2023 3rd round pick (CHI)
Additional Details:
The other team involved in this deal is unimportant, this is just the type of return that is possible for Kane.
3.
CHI
  1. Helm, Darren
  2. 2023 1st round pick (COL)
  3. 2023 5th round pick (COL)
Additional Details:
Pick is lottery protected
COL
  1. Toews, Jonathan ($5,250,000 retained)
  2. 2024 4th round pick (EDM)
Additional Details:
EDM 4th gets moved to 3rd team for salary retention, hawks get 5th from COL to compensate them. Most seem to expect a smaller return for Toews, but I personally find it unlikely that Chicago moves him for less than a first round pick, and a healthy Colorado team should make a deep playoff run, making this a late pick.
4.
CHI
  1. 2023 2nd round pick (NJD)
  2. 2023 4th round pick (NJD)
NJD
  1. Domi, Max
  2. 2023 6th round pick (TOR)
Additional Details:
Not much more to be said. Domi is having a good year, and should probably get a 2nd rounder plus more from a contender.
5.
CHI
  1. Smith, Craig
  2. 2023 3rd round pick (BOS)
BOS
    Hawks likely add a player like Smith in a cap dump to make the team look less embarrassing.

    Why is BOS dumping a pending UFA?
    Keep pick and keep Smitty for playoffs, then let him be a UFA July 1...

    Didn't he just get a cup ring?
    dude is an Avalanche legend!

    or did you mean poor because of all the money his dad screwed him out of?

    Toews has 2 more pts in 4 more games than Erod, 4 less pts in 7 less games than Compher and he is a shell of himself defensively. Throw in COL isn’t trading their 23 1st for a rental and that’s a pretty easy no.

    Leafs don't need Lafferty. Make it just a straight 1st for McCabe at 50% retained and I'd take that deal and ship off Holl separately for assets or keep Holl and ship off Benn if we don't make any moves up from since we have enough space to take a 1.25M cap increase
