1.) Fleury is not worth that much. He's worth Hutchinson and a 3rd.
2.) Malkin will never be traded. People don't realize that trading a superstar gets assets, but, you no longer have a superstar on the team. Humoring you though, Malkin is worth Fast and Kreider and a 1st. And why would we need Raanta if you just traded for Hutchinson??
3.) Toronto would want more than a pick for JVR. They would want a solid NHL-ready D-man. Daley? And the first rounder.
4.) Eric Fehr is at best a 3rd line center and your line mates with him are 3rd liners, as well. Bonino is a pseudo- 2nd liner, due to the potency of the HBK line. So if Malkin was gone, Bonino would take over the minutes.
5.) Dumoulin as 7th defenseman?? He played the 2nd most minutes, as a defenseman for the Penguins in the playoffs, and thrived with Letang. So that is just plain wrong. Sorry.
6.) Finally, Kevin Porter is an AHL forward, as much as people want him not to be, for reasons I can't comprehend. And GMJR has publicly said that Sundqvist is 4th line C if Cullen doesn't come back.
