So trade Kapanen for 2 healthy scratches and a prospect that won't even sniff the league for at least 3 years? .. nah.
I think others areas can be addressed by moving Johnsson. Donato was too inconsistent this year to really aim for him, I don't think they'll be much interest there for Toronto.
Demelo deal is decent, though he likely gets either more money or more term from someone else.
I wouldn't give that much to Dermott. Been way too inconsistent and injury prone since he made the league full time. I wouldn't give him much more than what Jacob Larsson signed for in Anaheim ($1.2M x 2 years). Seems like a good comparable.
I don't understand why so many people overpay Mikheyev on this site. He played 39 games which he was up and down, then suffered a serious season ending injury which had some people thinking he might not ever play in the NHL again, comes back for 5 play in games and does nothing. Seems incredibly dumb to give him anything that they can't bury fully in the AHL if they need to. Give him a 1 year x $1M show me deal and see what he can do if he's fully healthy for a season
