I doubt CBS does that, and that deal for Minnesota is pretty weak and DUmba gets more elsewhere

First might be alittle much, but CBJ would seriously consider anything that involves a quality center.

Reinhardt hasnt played C in the NHL though, and Risto isn;t at his lowest value, but its definitely not high. Maybe take out the prospect or the 1st from CBJ and make it a lesser piece.

Yeah I’d take it if they both extend but risto is a little Rich on the extension. With Tarasov in the pipeline I have few worries about letting a goalie go but it’s still nice to have Elvis in red white and blue. If both agree ahead of time yeah it’s a risk worth taking. To people saying it’s too much for cbj, make the Boston pick a Buffalo pick.

don't tell that to Buffalo fans. according to them, Reinhart is a top 25 C in the league...

I cant see ristolainen getting a raise. Hes been rumored to be on the block for probably 2 years, dont know what the ask is for him, but i see hes still here. I assume he gets moved as a straight rental, we probably retain half to get back something decent, and he hits ufa where he signs a one year show-me contract with a playoff-ish team desperate for rhd.

There is no “most realistic” course of action where Eichel is on the Sabres at the start of next season

Dumba will be moved or the Wild will lose him in expansion draft.

How much have teams been paying for cap space the last 2 seasons? 1sts and 2nds. If Seattle takes dumba the wild save those picks. That’s better than a bad trade
