As per everyone else I imagine this will get torn apart LOL

But here goes, I'm a believer that we will get Trotz, I wouldn't have said that a week ago but I'm beginning to believe that its quite possible

The trades below

New Jersey get a replacement RHD for Severson with more term on his contract left in Pionk they also get the most impactful player in the trade with Scheifele. NJ as much as they may like Hischer, Hughes and Mercer with Scheifele makes him expendable IMO, but what do i know? I believe the swap of firsts is evened out by the impact they will get from Scheifele who needs a change of scenery and the devils have the money to resign if he works out there.

Buffalo is getting closer to competing, a 2nd overall pick is more impactful for them than two later firsts and Demelo gives them the perfect D partner for Power that they have been looking for. Demelo while not flashy is dependable and easy to play with, which is great for an impactful rookie like Power.

The Arizona trade.... Chychrun and Crouse already have one foot out the door, surely they need to be dealt this summer (the draft) this has been going on too long now. Its maybe not the massive package they have been holding out for but they get 1st rounder that they want plus a second rounder, Heinola who has high end potential, Stanley is 6'7" need i say more? and Harkins needs more of an opportunity. Perhaps i couldve given the Coyotes the 9th overall pick instead of 16 but i was being greedy, if that's what it takes then find give em pick 9 and they get the NYR pick regardless if its a first (they get vegas pick) or second rounder (they get Buffalo Pick).

I really like Crouse as a 3rd Line LW, but i have him on the 2nd line for now until either A) Barron or Mallot show they can play in the top six (highly unlikely) or at deadline with cap space we accrue we go find a second line LW and push everyone down a spot.

Sign Severson to an extension immediately and next summer move Dillon to allow for Seversons pay raise and bring up Chisholm and let Stastny finally walk and resign Samberg and Barron.

in two years Wheeler is finally off the books, resign Perfetti, and hopefully extensions for Helle and Ehlers. and Lucius takes Wheelers spot at that time.

I'm probably out of my mind but hopefully someone of you are amused.

Regardless if anyone likes these deals or not, I hope Chevy gets this creative this summer... all possibilities should be explored, throw everything at the wall and see what sticks.
