I don't think Ghost being traded for much of value. His down year hasn't helped his trade value, plus why would PHI get rid of him? He's a 3/4 Dman at 4.5mm cap hit, which is pretty good if he's scoring 35+ points/year. I also think Yzerman holds onto AA unless someone really blows him away.
Cirelli is definitely not going to get traded. I'd expect TBL to move Johnson or Palat along with Paquette, and take undervalue to make it work. NTCs almost always get worked out (especially if you aren't a long time vet). Also expect them to graduate a couple of guys from Syracuse to make the cap work (Foote, Volkov, Raddysh come to mind).
I don't think WPG or FLA has any interest in those trades. I could see FLA being interested in Mike Green for maybe a 5th or 6th round pick, but those forwards wouldn't be of interest.
