Description
It has come to my attention that we don't have the assets to trade for Ehlers, Hellebucyk, AND Demelo

Trades
1.
EDM
  1. DeMelo, Dylan
  2. Niederreiter, Nino ($1,500,000 retained)
  3. 2024 4th round pick (WPG)
Additional Details:
Basically Bourgault (equivalent to a 1st), Yamamoto, and a 5th for a retained Nino with 1 year left (was acquired at the deadline for a 2nd) and Demelo. Add in Tullio as a sweetener.

Niederreiter is a good finisher that can contribute at 5v5 - exactly what we need.
WPG
  1. Bourgault, Xavier
  2. Ceci, Cody
  3. Tullio, Tyler
  4. Yamamoto, Kailer
  5. 2023 2nd round pick (EDM)
  6. 2023 5th round pick (EDM)
Additional Details:
Difference between the 2023 2nd and 2024 4th = value to dump Ceci.
2.
EDM
  1. 2024 6th round pick (CHI)
Additional Details:
I assume the Blackhawks are trying to ice a somewhat competitive roster next year, and Foegele would currently be a top 6 forward on that team. Surely the ability to trade up slightly compenates for the fact he's about $700k overpaid?
CHI
  1. Foegele, Warren
  2. 2024 4th round pick (WPG)

See the Jason Dickinson trade for a comp. I doubt you're close enough for the Hawks to accept.

Chicago probably makes that deal if the pick from Edmonton was a 2nd rounder.
