You're gunna have to bite the bullet on the fact COL isn't parting with Newhook or their 2023 1st for a rental like Horvat

Nemec is probably not an option for a trade, but we have other pieces

I think you move the 1st and a prospect and continue on with your happy life, but yeah, not both.

I actually like the idea of Kuz for 2RW. If Gauthier has found his stride then cool for 3RW otherwise bring in AA for the 3rd line. Or even up top and reunite kid line.

I know you want a Nemec, but can I interest you in a Nemeth?

Rangers would have no cap space to give Kuz a new contract, so no thanks to a 1st round pick for a rental.

By your own account, your team sucks. Why do you think you'll get maximum+ value on all your overrated players?

Rangers fans - I literally said any return - the first was a place holder so dont come @ me with Kuz and worth a first.

Avs fans - Swap Newhook for another prospect if you want, I'm not high on him at all. 1st + prospect is pretty fair value for a rental player of Horvat's Caliber (see Chiarot, Toffoli, Giroux, Foligno, etc trades).

For the Devils. - I thought with how Demko has been playing this year that it would be a tough sell. I think his back is broken from carrying the Canucks but he had a lot of hype last year as a vezina caliber goalie and is on a great contract. Other pieces (1st+) would work.

Maybe not Horvat but why wouldn't want to move your '23 first for a rental to get another shot at the cup? Isn't this your window?

The only questionable return is Demko.

A 1st + prospect is pretty fair value for a rental player like Horvat if you look at the last couple years' deadlines.

Kuzmenko says "RETURN DOESNT MATTER" its all about sending him somewhere he wants to go to maintain a good relationshop.

Schenn for 2 3rds - I mean Hamonic returned a 3rd rounder and he had a way worse contract + no one on the Canucks wanted him.

At least with the EPs they play different positions. Or with Sebatians Aho, one can differentiate between the Finn or the Swede.

Both Jack Hughes are American Centers.

Temporarily switch Elias Pettersson (D) to center and trade him.

I would be ok moving the '23 1st for the right rental, Hovart is maybe 5th on my ideal list. There is a 1% chance he can be resigned so I wouldn't give that 1st and a prosepct like JLF or Kaut. Avs window is open now, but it isn't a narrow one. Its not until Mikko needs a new deal that it could close quick. D.Toews will be tricky but I think it will work out.

COL would move that 1st (as part of a larger package) for a top 6F upgrade but would be looking for a piece with more term or contract control (RFA status).

It's not so much they won't move the pick, but moreso the return not being a half season rental (at least not for a 1st rd pick)

An ok prospect and effectively a second for a sure-fire top 6 C?

Look at the deadline deals from the last couple of years and that's a pretty fair price. Whether you want to pay that is another question but I don't think its laughable.

Makes sense. You guys managed to do it for Lehk last year so I don't doubt Sakic/McFarlane are capable of it. I guess it becomes a question of who is available and if your FO are willing to be patient and potentially not make a deal.

It's laughable. Very much so. Newhook is not just an 'ok prospect', and by your own admission your 'sure-fire top 6 C' sucks.
