That seems like a lot for a year of Hellebuyck and light for PLD

The Isles absolutely do not have cap. They have Dobson, Romanov and Bellows are RFA's who would take up most of the remaining cap and are already trying to offload cap to sign Kadri.

Isles decline.

Well, Boston and the Isles definitely say no.

How much is Wheeler worth at 50% and how much is Scheifele worth with like 1 mil retained

Would it be a year of Helle though?

Of course I can't speak for him, but you have a great young team on the rise, in L.A who is really only a Vezina caliber goalie away from being a consistent contender. I would imagine in this scenario he would re-sign in L.A. The only question is what they would do with Quick and Peterson. One of them would have to go; presumably Peterson, but he has struggled to live up to his contract.

This Jets fan likes all of these trades, in a scenario where Chevy decides to blow it up, but I don't see Seattle as a fit for PLD. They are in a building phase and have Beniers and Wright as the 1C and 2C they are going to develop in those roles. If anything they would go after some young wingers to play with those two.

Good luck dumping anybody for anything right now. Stars don’t have the cap after RFAs. Most teams don’t. And the teams that do will charge accordingly for taking cap from anybody

(1) Hellebuyck's cap hit means that Petersen and one other roster player have to go back the other way.

(2) With Quick and Petersen, we're pretty happy with our goaltending situation right now. We might look at Hellebuyck again when he becomes a free agent at the end of the season.

Unlinkey Winnipeg would consider the Islander, LA, Boston or Seattle trades.

There's no reason for Winnipeg to sell low on so many deals if they are going to blow it up. I imagine they'd opt for better picks/prospects as opposed to lowering their return by taking back lower end roster players/prospects in addition to lower picks.

Goalies are too inconsistent and unpredictable to merit that large of a return. I wouldn't even give up a haul like that for Shesterkin or Vasilevskiy.

Ottawa declines. We have zero need for a LHD, but we'd be happy to talk about Demelo, or even Bauer.

Just an FYI, Seattle isn't really lacking in center depth. They have Beniers and Wright who each have a chance to develop into top line centers in the near future, not to mention Gourde, Wennberg, McCann, Geekie, and Donato as veterans who are all capable of playing center.
