I think we need to have a conversation about the wild trading Kaprizov, they would in reality never do it but what would it take. in my mind i'd look at some younger pieces, who are on track to make serious impact with star potential. it would help to spread the cap through the lineup a bit more since 14 mil dead cap is a lot and ELC impact players are incredebly valueble.

i'm not saying it has to be the kings, but i do think they are one of few teams it makes sense for to do this. they have some older still important drivers of the team and if they want another cup with them and not just hope that they stay cheap with kids hopefully taking over time for some additions.

I think that Tkachuck before this season and Kaprizov would be kind of equal value, sure you get less years but still, cap, production and star power is similar. since wild have less space to take on some big deals and LA wanna add to what they got i see it like this. huberdeau would be basicly byfield+, weegar =vilardi+ some and clarke closes the gap in value.

i think 0 LA fans would agree, but remenber every living being is saying a year afterwards that panthers gigawon that trade. i think it could be similar with this one, but would also allow wild to be very good both these 14mil dead cap years.
