Why would Anaheim want to waste a roster slot on Tucker Poolman's contract? We'd need a bigger incentive than an unsigned ECHL goalie prospect to do that.
Montreal doesn't need a bottom-pairing LhD when they have Matheson, Guhle, Xhekaj and Harris on that side, who make Joel Edmundson surplus before Dermott gets there.
Like Anaheim, Columbus will need persuading to take on an unwanted and not insignificant contract.
Mikheyev will be recovered and on the roster by Opening Day, so you're over the cap.
