**2023 3RD ROUND PICK CONDITION**

If the Flyers re-sign Klingberg, their 2023 3rd Round Pick becomes their 2023 2nd Round Pick

Best case scenario, Stars get a pick in the early - mid 20's, a defensive replacement for Klingberg that would be a solid partner for Heiskanen or Lindell, and a solid offensive prospect to restock their prospect pool.

For a team as old as Dallas, Sanheim brings a bit of youth to their blue line & would be a solid top-4 option with one of Oleksiak, Heiskanen, or Harley. His RFA status after this season also gives Dallas the flexibility to negotiate his future with the organization.

With Robertson & Dellandrea graduating to the NHL level, the Stars prospect pool is barren, especially when it comes to their forwards. Given the lack of offense from the Stars, goal-scoring prospects are needed addition to the prospect pool if they don't want their upcoming rebuild to take the better part of the next decade.

Dallas decides to sell at the deadline, and Klingberg becomes the jewel of the NHL, meaning that the team that wants him is not going to get market value for him. They are going to have to outbid every other team that wants an elite offensive RD & make it worth Dallas to give up the final year of his extremely team friendly contract.

Klingberg is one of the best defnesemen in the NHL when it comes to puck possession (zone exits/entries) & is one of two Stars defensemen that can consistently get the puck out of his own end, the other being Heiskanen. His offense speaks for itself. His hands & shot from the blue line among the best in the NHL. He's a true 1RD, PP Quarterback, and he's on one of the best non-ELC contracts in the NHL through next season. He instantly gives the Flyers one of the best blue lines in the Eastern Conference.

**2021 2ND ROUND PICK CONDITION**

If Radulov plays in at least 50% of the Bruins remaining games (regular season & postseason) and the Bruins make the Eastern Conference Finals, Boston's 2021 2nd Round Pick becomes their 2021 1st Round Pick

Wagner added for cap purposes. Can be anyone the Bruins want to add in order to shed a little bit of cap

When on the ice, Radulov has had a solid start to his 2020-2021 season, to follow up on a good playoff run last season. His big question right now is certainly his ability to remain healthy, hence the condition attached to the deal.

If he can stay healthy, he would be an upgrade over guys like Krejci, Ritchie, and Coyle on the Bruins 2nd line. He's a good veteran presence, can plug into either PP unit, and is under contractual control for one more season as well.

**2021 1ST ROUND PICK CONDITIONS**

If Columbus' 1st Round Pick is a lottery pick, they have the option on whether or not they would like to defer the pick to their 2022 1st Round Pick or move forward giving Dallas their 2021 1st Round Pick

Voronkov is a longer term, wait & see kind of prospect. He's playing in the KHL which has some skepticism attached to it anyway, but he hasn't done too bad for an 18-year old in what's widely considered the 2nd best league in the world. Not one of the Jackets "Top" prospects, but still one that could make an NHL impact at some point in the future.

Bottom line is that Pavelski is off to the hottest start of his NHL career....and that's on an offensively abysmal team. He can play in just about every facet of the game, and given Columbus' need for a top-6 Center, he fits on to their roster real well, especially if they are going to make a run at a playoff birth this year.

That 4th place spot in the central looks to be pretty contentious & Pavelski would be a solid piece to help the Jackets keep pace with teams like the Hawks and possibly the Predators.

With only 1 year left on his contract & Dallas eating nearly half of his contract next season, this move really benefits Columbus and allows them to potentially add another piece or two.

I fully expect this to be a late 2nd Round Pick, hence the prospect added to the deal.

Stars need some young RD help in their prospect pool & I highly doubt the Leafs are going to part with Liljegren so that brings me to Niemela. Playing in Liiga, he's probably got at least another year before he comes over to North America, but he gives the Stars a little bit of organizational depth at their shallowest position.

Khudobin has showed that he has the potential to play at a very high level when he is not the primary goalie in the crease. He is an extremely capable split starter & can spell Andersen during his slumps. He gives Toronto 2 options in net instead of relying on one goalie to carry them through the end of the season & postseason.

He's also under contract for the next 2 years, so it gives Toronto a little bit of a buffer to find their future starter, if they decide to move on from Andersen this offseason.
