Karlsson Trade

Description
Before everyone lampoons this... I'm just trying to get a sense for where folks gauge the value of these prospects and who could be exchanged to make a deal like this work.

My first thoughts are that Glass and Hague are extremely valuable prospects, so maybe swapping one of them out for a lesser prospect would be more realistic.

Next is the move for Karlsson. Clearly he is a top tier player, requiring a ton in return, but this package being sent over from Pittsburgh is pretty substantial.

To Summarize:

Pitt Trades:

Phil Kessel
Justin Schultz
Cody Glass
2019 1st Round Pick
2019 2nd Round Pick

for

Erik Karlsson
Nicholas Hague
2019 3rd (VGK)
2019 3rd (PIT)

Seems like a lot.

Of course Pitt would need to ensure Karlsson would resign with them to move all of this, and that would be possible. If the cap increased by even 2 million next season they would have enough space to sign Guentzal at 5 million and extend Karlsson at at least 10M.

Thoughts?

Wasn't it reported that VGK wouldn't even move Glass for Karlsson? Why would they do it for Kesssel?

I didn't realize these facts.

So given these recent developments, are there any pieces involved between these two teams that can be put together to make this trade?
