Swap and Trade

Created by: Skyraider112
Team: 2022-23 Vegas Golden Knights
Initial Creation Date: Oct. 31, 2022
Published: Oct. 31, 2022
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
A little thought exercise for me, here are the rules I'm abiding by:
- Trade your highest scoring player from last season to another team, this is the only trade you can make, the team must be able to accept the trade and remain within the cap limits
- Swap three players from your team (excluding players you received via the trade) with three other players that have the same cap hit/AAV for this season. Cannot send or receive ELC contracts via swap.

Goal is to try and make the team better than it is now, even while losing your most productive player from last season. If you don't like this AGM, feel free to comment on why that is or simply just ignore this I guess.

HAHA if you didn't read the description I'm gonna look like a lunatic. For those reading this I thank you deeply from the bottom of my heart.

Additional Details:
Vegas has no cap, so I have to trade him to a team that can absorb at least 2.5 mil of cap space. The return has to be minimal, because I cannot gain much cap here, only league min, in order to stay under the cap.

This is so beyond unrealistic. Minnesota isn't trading Joel Eriksson Ek. Especially for not some dman they don't need! Yeah, I just read it , and Minnesota still very much wouldn't

Formeton is under criminal investigation, Hence pretty sure that's why he's not resigned.

Martinez isn't leaving Vegas for Minnesota.

Robin Lehners career might be over, So he's absolutely going nowhere.

I read the description and I'm still angry about this trade. I'm gonna let it go, but why is this a thing?

So beyond unrealistic implies realistic no? You could read the description and maybe understand what the point of this is. The swaps aren't supposed to be fair, they are supposed to heavily favor the team that this AGM focuses on. Therefore, your ardency about the trade tells me that I did a fine job indeed of improving Vegas.
