-This trade is tough. Guenther has had NHL success but Hutson feels like a higher ceiling guy. I think Montreal would blink on this one and keep the higher upside play.
-I don't think Allen gets back a haul, but I think someone will bite this summer. Sharks feel unlikely because they will still be in rebuild mode, but there are teams out there looking for a solid 1B and Allen can pull that off reasonably well.
-I think Calgary would take a swing at one of your excess D over Ylonen - they have a ton of UFAs and a guy like Jayden Struble is probably more valuable than another bottom-6 forward. I don't think this is a bad trade, but it feels like one of those trades that fans of both teams are mildly annoyed by.
-The easiest no here. Both players are overpaid against their production, but Lee is actually still a somewhat useful NHL player. Add in the fact that Lee's overpaid deal only has 2 years left after this while Anderson's has 3. Oh, and Lee is the captain of the team and has a full NTC that turns into a 15-team over the summer.
-Florida would be selling low on Lundell if they moved him right now. He's still young enough that I wouldn't want to trade him right now. This package is nothing to sneeze at, but I still think the Panthers keep Lundell and hope he can look more like his rookie year self again.
