Created by: VijayPatel11

Team: 2020-21 Florida Panthers

Initial Creation Date: Jan. 29, 2021

Published: Jan. 29, 2021

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

I personally would not trade Ekblad, I think he is one of the major pieces of our franchise that needs to stay to provide some stability.
I don't think COL and VGK are great landing spots for our two main guys. COL has a lot of star power on the forward front and probably wouldn't need Hubie and VGK doesn't really have the assets to repay us for Barkov.

Free Agent Signings

RESERVE LIST		YEARS	CAP HIT
Boldy, Matthew		3	$925,000
Caufield, Cole		3	$925,000

Trades

FLA

Timmins, Conor

Additional Details:

D Pipeline is pretty clogged, I think having Wennberg at 3C and PK would benefit them more than having Timmins on the 3rd pair

COL

Wennberg, Alexander ($1,125,000 retained)

Additional Details:

Good 3rd line center, has a history of good defensive and PK play

FLA

Caufield, Cole [Reserve List]
Fleury, Cale
Lehkonen, Artturi
Weal, Jordan
2021 1st round pick (MTL)

Additional Details:

I don't know whether Caufield is "untouchable" or not, but this is about what I would want for a player of Hubey's caliber. I'm sorry if it is too much.

MTL

Huberdeau, Jonathan ($2,950,000 retained)

Additional Details:

I think they are really missing a 1st line winger, and Huberdeau could help them fill that gap (for 3 years on a fantastic deal!)

FLA

Addison, Calen
Bjugstad, Nick
Boldy, Matthew [Reserve List]
Hartman, Ryan
2021 1st round pick (PIT)

Additional Details:

Bjug and Hartman for the cap to work. I don't want to trigger anyone so I am not asking for Rossi in return, so Instead I put Boldy. Also, Minny's top 4 seems to be pretty set with all of the long term deals, so I think Addison would be an acceptable ask.

MIN

Barkov, Aleksander

Additional Details:

Minny seems like a team that would want a player like Barkov. A legitimate 1st line center would do wonders for their top line and could help take Fiala and Kap to the next level.

FLA

Gostisbehere, Shayne

Additional Details:

Rumors, just a possibility, I personally would like for this to happen.

PHI

Yandle, Keith
2021 2nd round pick (FLA)

FLA

2021 2nd round pick (CAR)

CAR

Driedger, Chris

Additional Details:

Might get taken by Seattle depending on how well he plays, but so far he has looked great.

FLA

OTT

Gudas, Radko

Additional Details:

Somewhere, we have too many contracts.

FLA

Eriksson, Loui
2022 1st round pick (VAN)

Additional Details:

Can take on bad contracts with newfound cap space.

Quoting: OutCold13

I was thinking Beckman or Khovanov possibly could be talked into Khusnutdinov.

Knovanov would make sense as a center prospect.

Huge swerve from Colorado. Wennberg is a pending UFA and was just bought out a few months ago. If Colorado wanted him they could have acquired him for peanuts in the offseason. If Timmins is moved it'll be for a really good top 6 forward rental, or for a younger 3C with some term. Wennberg is neither of those.
