If Ottawa is so disappointed in Korpisalo’s performance that they are already looking to move him and his four seasons remaining at $4m per, then a simple swap of 3rd round picks won’t get it done. If Ottawa wants to retain 50% then perhaps.

I could see Colorado maybe doing the Johansen trade if Pinto has a good 10ish games before the deadline, the others not so much

You might find a team with interest in Korpisalo, in which case, you might actually be able to get something for him, but to CHI, he should be considered a pure cap dump. He isn't helpful to us and would not be in our long term plans. The only benefit to anyone in that deal is OTT gaining the cap space for the next four years, and that is what you should be paying for.

Hawks decline. They don't want an average goalie with 4 years of term remaining.

ya no chance in hell OTT in trading Pinto, especially for a 31 YO and a late first
