Why would the Wild essentially just give Greenway away? He's still young and has a chance of developing into a solid power forward. If they're going to trade him, the return has to make some form of sense.

He's honestly just a placeholder I was just looking for a RW with some size. I'll just replace him with Athanasiou to make it more realistic

Few thoughts on my personal opinion. I think Cernak is a great partner for Hughes whether it be offersheet or trade. I feel like giving up a first for two year of Manson is a lot. I know you get to dump Beagle in the deal but essentially Manson and Cernak bring similar skill sets.. so I feel a puck moving dman that can drive transitional play and run a second power play would be good to pair with Edler. As for big RW as a place holder.. they have Zack in the system who fits that description who would cost under a million dollar a year. Not sure if he is ready for 3rd line deployment if that’s the case Leivo is a better fit than AA. Pacquette is a waste of a pick if Sutter is being healthy scratched. Although overpaid Sutter brings as much value as Cedric in a 4th line capacity. Also signing Toffoli will cost them the 4th round pick you gave away in that trade as it is conditioned on the Toffoli trade. Finally I don’t think it is wise to rush Hoglander to the NHL. Let him season a year in the AHL if it happens get used to North America sized ice and I think he would be ready to make the jump next season. Overall good thoughts just my honest assessment on your post

not going to let Cernack get away.

sven is not going on LTIR

I forgot he was there just assume they agree to terminate his contract doesn't really matter

Good luck keeping him at that cap hit

I think there's a better chance that Eriksson goes for the mutual termination if his agent can find him a ~2 million a year deal somewhere else, since he only has 5 million owed over 2 seasons.

I didn't really know who to pair who with on the defense so I'd be open to switching them. I would've been open to bringing in a more of puck moving dman if we hadn't signed Myers, plus I see Rathbone being that 2nd unit PP QB in a few years anyways. I think they need to focus on being more defensively sound and I think it take both Manson and Cernak to do it. I also thought about putting Macewen on the 3rd line but I agree that I don't think he is ready for the 3rd line yet. I also forgot about the condition on the Toffoli signing but I'm not really a fan of Sutter which is why I brought in Paquette I just think he's faster and willing to be more physical. I also don't think there is going to be an AHL season so I think giving him sheltered minutes on the 3rd line is much more significant to his development then sending back to the SHL. I'm also pretty sure I read an interview from him saying he wouldn't go to the AHL anyways. But I appreciate your thoughts

I mean that would be amazing but I'd be skeptical of that happening I think we're gonna be stuck with him until next year

We'll see, but if Eriksson was UFA this summer I'd be happy to have him on the canucks for 2 million a year, so I imagine another team might think similarly.

thank you. 4 OS in 10 years none accepted. We are fine.
