Pacioretty will never get that return. Just saying.

ok some really good moves here. Because there is such a demand for legit C`s, I think Stastny might seek more than $6 per season. Or I should say, he will get that offered by other teams. re-signing Delauriers is a smart move. might be a touch above the one million mark. Jay Beagle as your 4th line is brilliant. I think he is 4th on face off`s in the league or last time I checked. I just checked and he fell slightly to 6th but not much difference between 4th and 6th. John Moore on defense is excellent. He is smart and responsible in D-zone. Will St Louis part with Dunn? they might, they are getting a bona fide 30 goal scorer. Plus MTL gets a 1st round pick. I like both Drouin and Galchenyuk on the wings. You have good salary cap space, plus draft picks. So ya I can see something like this happening. Oh ya, you moved out Benn, Schlemko and A. Shaw. All players that I would also move.

There are a few UFA replacements if Stastny wouldn't accept that money or term (the term is what concerns me more). Also, a few solid RFA options, though MTL would need to obtain their rights. Lots of depth on the wings could facilitate that.
