You know, I don't know if Florida takes that, but I think starting with Sandin & a 2021 1st gets them thinking - maybe giving one slightly better prospect instead of two longshots puts it over the top? But I don't think the Panthers can move Bob, and Knight is probably their most attractive asset, and they're facing a hell of a cap crunch this summer, and you do the math from there. It's not the worst idea.

Mrazek for Driedger needs more going to Seattle. They're both guys with bigger contracts coming off bad seasons but Driedger is a couple years younger and was a little less terrible than Mrazek this year. I could see this being a way for Seattle to acquire an extra pick of two from Toronto to help build up their organizational depth.

Holl for Wood makes no sense on the Jersey side. Wood is 26, he's part of the leadership on Jersey, and all accounts coming out of there make it seem like they want to keep him around. Holl is 30 and a 3rd pair guy on NJ - they can get something like him in UFA for just the cost of the contract, without giving up an asset.

I don't see why Philly trades for Kerfoot - they're not really saving any cap (Kerfoot at $3.5M for Lindblom at $3M and Frost's RFA rights doesn't really save them much more than $500K once Frost signs for $1Mish) and they're trading two younger guys with RFA rights still for a 27 year old pending UFA. Chuck Fletcher is unpredictable, but I think he'd pass on this one.

Yep, but its kind of good for Seattle as now they can tank for Bedard. That is if Grubauer does not rebound

Ya so first off its Kerfoot- a 50 point versatile player for a winger who needs a fresh start and a young, cheap RFA. The Leafs may have to add an asset but the framework of that trade makes sense.

Also Wood for Holl makes sense to a degree, especially if the Devils dont qualify him.

Johnsson for Holl makes more sense

Kerfoot's a pending UFA and Philly is looking to rebuild. And he's hit 50 points literally once in his career - this season, when the majority of his even strength ice time was with some combo of Matthews, Marner, Tavares, or Nylander. He's more likely to regress back to the 35ish point guy he was before when you're skating him with Scott Laughton & Owen Tippett. And again, he's a pending UFA - I don't see why Philly trades a younger, 30-35 point guy like Lindblom *and* throws in a 23 year old forward like Frost.

I don't see why the Devils need to trade an asset for Holl to play RD3 on a $2M cap hit when they can just sign one of a half dozen guys in UFA to do the same job for the same cost. Plus, moving Wood doesn't make much sense the year after he is hurt for most of the season and only plays 3 games - it would make more sense to qualify him (they have more than enough cap room), give him the minutes they were giving Jimmy Vesey, and let him rebuild value.
