That Duchene contract is ugly, but I'd think about it to get Ekholm. Still, you'd need to add more to get us to take on that albatross.

They're in denial about Nashville's future tears of joy

That Detroit trade makes no sense to me lol. It doesn't make sense for either team why would Detroit want to take on Duchenes contract. And in Nashvilles case if you are going all in for some odd reason why trade away Ekholm?

A pile of 3rd liners and a mediocre prospect doesnt get you anywhere near Rakell

NSH declines across the board. The return for Rakell doesn't seem to make much sense for ANA either.

It doesn't look like much of a playoff push, but it can't be a rebuild either, with NSH giving up some of their better prospects here.

Ruining their future just to get beat in the 1st round? Pass.

Going for what exactly? Letting someone else take the 4th spot in the Central? This is awful, both short term and long term.

Bad all around for Nashville except for Rakell but that doesn't make sense for Anaheim

Using your best trade chip to get rid of Duchene is a non-starter. We can easily handle Duchene's contract caphit for the near future. Buying him out would hurt but it's still better than getting basically nothing for Ekholm. Beyond that it doesn't even save us caproom. Those three from Detroit cost 7.65M in capspace and then necessitates the Arizona trade which puts the total caphit at 13.125M when Duchene (who is still better than either of the forwards on that return) and Ekholm (who is better than Goligoski) cost 11.75M. Add in Trenin, Davies, and the other young players that are playing well and it's a wash. So it makes the team worse, necessitates another bad trade, and then doesn't make the team better.

Trading our 2 top prospects (Tomasino and Farrance) for a couple depth pieces would be ridiculous.

Rinne goes nowhere. He has a NMC and has stated he plans on ending his career in Nashville.

Anaheim doesn't have any use for a UFA to be and 2 players with 1 year left. Evangelista is one of our better prospects but isn't enough to get Rakell all by himself. This wouldn't be enticing for Anaheim.

CBJ take this in a heartbeat. Hell, we'll retain even more if we have to.
