Seems like Giordano will be a leaf no? Second rounder and dermott looks about right. 4th to a 3rd team to retain another half so they can target a depth forward.

Makes sense. I do like Dermott but I wouldn't be surprised to see him out of the fold with Sandin and Liljegren on contract years. I think trading him would be a courtesy for more of an opportunity to play in another market; a la Moore, Marchment, etc.

Seems like a realistic trade. It'll be interesting to see the D pairings when Muzzin returns.

I could see one of Holl or Sandin coming out for Muzzin

Likely Sandin. I don't think Muzzin can play RD.

id say more like Holl would be out of the line up

I don't.

3 teams apparently rn front runners for Gio

Toronto, NYR, Carolina

Gio according to Serevalli stated he wants to join Toronto. Now thats fine problem Dubas does not want to give 1st or prospect for rental and it seems neither do the Hurricanes or Rangers. So that makes things interesting.

Meanwhile thanks to Chiarot Francis eyes this and goes well um he got so I want this. Difference is any team rn getting Gio and using LTIR is taking on 6.75mill and so a 3rd team has to come in to make it all work. That will in the end make him more expensive

So while his resume is great is 3-5 months of him worth paying lets say a 1st + 2 4ths + Hirovinen.
