-I don't think Edmonton moves Puljujarvi for Engvall & a 3rd but I could be surprised.
-Ullmark has a full NMC, I can't see him waiving it; beyond that, can't see Boston making a move like that when they have minimal goalie depth behind Swayman.
-Doesn't make sense for Arizona to trade Little's cap hit - it gives them 2x$5.3M against the cap for only $4.75M this year and $3.75M next (and that's before insurance kicks in.) Mrazek, meanwhile, has a cap hit of 2x$3.8M but actually will get paid *more* real dollars than Little ($4.4M/$4.2M) over the next 2 seasons. Coyotes easily pass.
-I could see a deal based around Sandin for Chychurn with parts added on, but adding Nylander doesn't make sense. Arizona isn't going to contend in those 2 years and would basically get 164 games out of him before he walks away. If they're moving Crouse & Chychurn together it's going to be for a ton of picks and/or guys with a good amount of team control.
-Why does Seattle do you this favor? Larsson is a solid RD1 for them on an affordable deal with term, and he's one of their alternates. I can't see them taking on the older + more expensive Jake Muzzin (coming off a year with only 2 concussions!), a pending UFA in Kerfoot, and an okay prospect in Hirvonen. They're basically clearing $5M in cap for you for Hirvonen and whatever hopeful return they can get for Kerfoot. Easy pass for the Kraken.
