Nashville acquires a power play defenseman
NSH
  1. Ristolainen, Rasmus
Additional Details:
Nashville with the speculation that they are hard after Duchene will still likely try to go for it next year. right now, it appears they will be asking Fabbro to be ready for a big role in 2019-20, but Ristolainen in a lesser role could help as a power play defenseman.

Nashville saves 4.3 million more on the cap.

Could only see them thinking about that if they dont get Duchene or someone similar.

Nashville actually saves another $4M + in this deal so it's very possible they can do both

I can't see Nashville paying more for Ristolainen than they got in return for Subban.

They took less for Subban to unload 9 mil in cap space...welcome to Tennessee Matt Duchene

The point is that it's a massive overpay for a guy who'd be a #5 defenceman on Nashville. Risto might be worth a 1st + to some teams, but not the Preds.
