Description
IF they could unload both Ceci and Foegele, then the retention likely wouldn't be required.. But if they could get Pesce to replace Ceci, this team would be Top 2 in the West with Colorado.. Feeling Campbell has a bounce back year being more comfortable with a season behind him now..

"defensive defenseman" is really just a code word for bad defenseman these days

AZ doesnt have roster spot or really a need for another bottom 6 W - he is on last year doubt he gets better than 3rd @TDL, so trade makes no sense from AZ piont

You don't really know who Ceci and Foegele are I take it.

Both guys are handily outperforming their contracts. Dumping them for a pair of 3rd is not smart business - especially when you're then overpaying for Ceci's replacement and then not replacing Foegele at all.

Overall the team is worse and you spent Broberg + Lavoie + 2nd to do it.

Is this a reverse red paperclip thing?

100% what I meant by it, but some NHL execs still like certain players, if they gave Shattenkirk $3.5m for 3 years, I am sure they'd look at Ceci for $3.25m and only 2 years remaining.. Just an idea..

Yeah, I just used the Yotes because everybody dumps their trash in AZ for players.. 3rd round is kind of a decent price to pay for a 15 goal scorer whose cap hit is under $3m- I'm doubting either trade gets made, and Pesce will likely stay in Carolina, but in a perfect world dropping Ceci and Foegele for a couple picks and taking flyers on a good young F in Comtois and a season vet like Sutter for less than Foegele's price would be very enticing...
