None of those trades happen.
Manning won't be wanted by any team. He looks terrible and is paid way too much.
Spooner just passed through waivers. Noone wanted him for free.
Gagner and Lucic are both pretty much useless. Gagner's contract only goes through 19-20 season while Lucic goes through 22-23 and due to the structure of his contract is buyout proof. Vancouver also has to worry about extending Goldobin and Boeser so the additional 3M hit from Lucic wouldn't help that.
The UFAs are good targets though. At the end of the day, Spooner and Manning probably get bought out which will open up some capspace.
