Ullmark, Linus

Additional Details:

Would Boston take a chance on Norris as a possible 1C/2C at $5.95 mil? Ullmark is most likely gone in the offseason.

Norris’s shoulder is way too big of a concern to take him on even at that price.

Ullmark will do more for Boston playing 40 games then Norris will

He certainly is a big risk/reward type of player. I am hopeful he returns to Ottawa healthy and can maintain that health for a sustained period of time. 1 more injury to the shoulder and I fear it's career-ending. I do think Ullmark will get shipped in the off-season to somewhere.

They don't except in a ACGM environment. I did a deal with TB that would stock up a few high draft picks as the cupboard is quite bare, and maybe a 2nd early exit from the playoffs will promote some reacquisition of picks.
