A very not realistic thing

Team: 2023-24 Nashville Predators

Initial Creation Date: Jul. 26, 2023

Published: Jul. 26, 2023

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

A series of highl6 unlikely trades. All the values probably suck but im terrible at determining value.

Idea behind it: nashville gets swayman or similar youngish goalie with potential. I chose swayman because with bostons issue at center maybe theyre willing to entertain a swap. Novak is a center at near league minimum coming off a big year with a crappy team and coach. Maybe he reaches new heights on a good team.

Nashville pays Chicago or another team to retain an additional 50% and sends saros to la now at 1,250,000 caphit.

La sends copley as cap equalizer a 1st and byfield. Hard to get the value down but schneider was around 8th overall but with nashville retaining 50% and paying for another 50% retention along with saros being much more proven than schneider at time of trade. *shrug* idk. The 1st is negotiable... byfield is the target.

From there, upgrade 1d. If LA refuses their 1st, swap in tampas 1st. Pesce is an upgrade at rhd.

Send lauzon to somewhere for a flippable asset. Send carrier and said asset to vancouver for garland.
Garland plays placeholder until kemell is nhl ready.

Nashville gets a substitute 1G until Askarov is ready.
1 future 1C
A current 1st pairing rhd that should mesh well with josi. All 3 pairings are set up with a puckmover and a more stay at home d. Livingstone comes up next season or at trade deadline if barrie isnt traded.

Team is still probably bad and trades are likely way off but c'est la vie
