Description

Trade for #1 LHD to play with Parayko. Remove Kevin Hayes by retaining. Someone will take a flyer. He had success in NYR, but could be any team. Ottawa cannot afford to re-sign Chychrun with Chabot/Sanderson. Lindholm takes high AAV 1 year deal in hopes to boost his stock after a down year. If Dvorsky isn't ready, slide Schenn to 3C and adjust the wingers.

Chytil seems to be back so I’m not sure there’s interest in a 3C anymore. If NYR doesn’t jump at that someone else will

I think pick 16 has to be involved for Ottawa to have the conversation on chychrun.

Also gotta imagine that Hayes at double retention is worth something even if it’s not amazing. I would say like a 3rd.
