Team: 2017-18 Pittsburgh Penguins

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Now I know I will come under fire because everyone says Penguins fans are delusional for over valuing Cole. But just listen. Bozak is a free agent, I doubt Toronto retains but they save significant money by trading him regardless. Cole desperately helps out their blue line, especially as they have Carrick in the top 4-6, and Marincin as depth. You have to sacrifice to gain, plus Marleau can play centre. The second round pick is from 2019, but if changed to 2018 is in a deep draft and honestly i would even add on a 4th on there just because, but in my opinion this benefits both teams needs.

The second trade I see as an underachieving d-man being traded to a group that rotates their D core and works with them, plus it gives Hunwick a change of scenery. Miller is having a good offensive season, and the prospect and 5th is to even the D swap in my opinon. Honestly, now that I look at it, there could be a 4th coming back to Pittsburgh in 2018, but regardless, these are two trades I could see occurring, and in my opinion they arent bad.

Rirst one might happen if the Leafs decide they won't resign Bozak. I really don't see the Knights trading Miller, especially for that little

Right now the Leafs need Bozak playing centre than adding just another 6th Dman.
Campa96: Doesn't matter if Bozak is going to resigned or not (likely not), he's needed for this year.
Vegas are in a playoff spot. Miller is playing surprisingly well. No way is he traded for THAT.

cole = late 2nd early 3rd at best toronto doesnt need to trade a solid center and a player they need for a cup run to a team they may run into in the playoffs

also miller is worth a 1st and a a -b+ prospect
