Description

the andersen trade was the hardest as it was kind of hard to judge his value but I believe that is pretty fair. the manner trade might need some more pieces on either end whether it be prospects or picks. I'm not sure if kapanen gets that much but that could be switched around to equalize the value. i think the kings would be happy with getting dermott for there future and see what he becomes.

TOP 6
these lines could be shuffled as needed depending on whats working and whats not but robertson may be able to slot into the top 6 over mikheyev if he impresses.

3RD LINE
this line solely depends on the production of barabanov. if he plays well it can stay like if not a guy like spezza or engvall could slot into the top 9. also depends if mikheyev stays in the top 6 over robertson.

4TH LINE
this line impresses in the playoffs so i think it could stay together but the leafs have multiple depth wingers and center that could also play if it doesn't work (i.e korshkov,malgin,petan)
