First of all you are over the cap

Next the gaudreau and tkachuk are a bit low go with 10 for both

Next minisota need to shed capspace

Next don't sign letang and zadorov at that price

Next where mangiapane and kylignton at least trade them

So in conclusion, maybe need a little work

Minnesota declines

Boston easily declines. You won't get positive value for Monahan.

You do realize Backlund is a premium defensive forward (13. in Selke voting) that would either fit perfectly on our 4th line or allow Eriksson Ek to jump higher in the lineup? I don't think this is too far-fetched. We'd need a 3rd team retaining but after that I'd be more than happy to do this trade.
