a lot of if not all of the trades have little to no chance of happening, you’d have to actually jettison legitimate assets in at least a handful of them to make this work

I don't see us getting O'Reily unless we overpay, I don't see us getting Hanafin period, if CAR trades him they need to question their GM. Hudon is staying with Montreal, and I think if Tavares was to come to montreal (Which, at this point is like a 10% chance), we would break the bank for him. I'm talking 14 mil probably.

Other than maybe the trade with buffalo (since Pacioretty is a year away from UFA), I don’t see how Habs wouldn’t be giving enough... The trade with Arizona is basically a salary dump plus incentive, Boston trade is pretty even, same as the Chicago one since salary is being retained. The Carolina trade is perfect in my opinion considering both teams needs

Buffalo will need more than one year of Patches & a 2nd Round Pick in order to move ROR.

I have been over and over a potential deal with Montreal and TBH I can not come up with one that legitimately makes sense for both clubs. I think the Sabres match up better with Carolina & Calgary to make an ROR deal.

Your Carolina deal will never see the light of day anyway, so add the 2018 1st rounder (3rd pick overall) to the Sabres deal, and they should at least listen!
