My thoughts are that all these players are on expiring deals. So we are talking about rentals.
Chiarot - Even the hockey writer's say hope for a 1st but expect a 3rd. We are talking about a 30 year old, stay-at-home UFA Dman lacking foot speed. Martinez and Scandella didn't even net firsts. He would be supplementary for any contending team, but I do think a deal with picks on another team would be more likely.
Fabbri - I think Fabbri for Dermott with a sweetener makes sense, sure, I probably chose the wrong one but your getting a young NHL caliber Dman to help on the left side. maybe a mid level prop[ect or pick makes more sense
Johansson - is a fourth liner in his 30's also a UFA... he would be worth next to nothing as it is but if ya take Ritchie's deal they get a serviceable fourth liner next year and TO would have to sweeten it a bit, he may not score but its only 2.5 million for a year, if you get something for nothing its not like we are talking about a $6 million dollar contract
They feel like hockey trades more likely for the offseason then the TDL but I feel the value is there, just maybe not exactly what each team is looking/hoping for.
