Callahan like Savard in 2011 has a 100% ironclad NMC he wont waive and will get a cup because of it .

no way minnisota one of the hardest leagues in the NHL to maintain is giving up Kunin given they aren't really in a playoff position there is no upside for them .(ana,cgy col and min are tied or within 2 pts of the only wildcard )

MTL declines the STL trade because we could get more from ANA who has the biggest need and 5 center prospects that are point per game on a team with 4 players who have started as top line centers in their career filling out ANA center position to the point Raekell is playing wing and Kossila's development at the NHL level was put on hault when they hired Henrique as more then a rental .not to forget WSH,and SJS are in this to trying to obtain a 2nd /5 top goal scorers of the last 5 years .

Even the Plekanec deal if we retain cap can get a 2nd alone without giving up anything if not more
