Not allowed to offer up conditional picks based on a player re-signing anymore.

NSH will want a first and likely 2 expansion exempt prospects.

You’d think that if they’re blowing it up they would want younger players coming back

While I do see Caufield in the lineup in the future, not sure it is this season. Out of the 25 games, he may get a cup of coffee, like 5 games, but let him develop properly in Laval. Poehling is growing as the season progresses in Laval. Let's do the same for Caufield.

Also, Nashville may not want a 30 year old in Tatar. They might, as they do need scoring.

Caufield, 1st, + would work. 2 2nds could be said to be equivalent to a 1st and I think I would take the 2 top 60 picks than 1 in the 16-32 range. Tatar is a guy that would need to be flipped after and then the work is on NSH so there’s not much value there other than making cap work. Mete doesn’t have the value in a prospect that NSH would want though.

Preds decline

Tatar too old for a rebuild, Mete far less potential than NSH D prospects, and draft picks hold lesser value this season - given prospects haven't been playing and travel is restricted
