Description
Soft Rebuild of the team keeping the core 3. We threw away this season and made some deals that allow other teams to shed cap.

Dallas: Blockbuster move for Jake and Graves. 2026 picks are probably not going to be very far from each other (late 1st for early 2nd)
Van: gets a cheap D man for playoffs.
Toronto: gets to shed some cap space to go after larger trade targets while getting a decent winger for the playoffs.
Ott: Gets another Joseph.
Edmonton: Finaly gets a #1 Goalie with ties to the city.
Colorado: Gets a backup who can start some games and swaps late 1st for a 2nd.
Phi: replaces Hart for cheap
STl: swaps Struggling wingers hoping to jumpstart.

Pittsburgh then uses cap space and picks to rebuild for next season. (See Part #2)
