Kotkaniemi is worth a LOT more than a 4th. Get real.
Necas > Nylander right now. Morrow is untouchable. Get bent.
Teravainen for Meier isn't an upgrade. Teuvo is way better defensively and the difference between their offense isn't big enough to justify moving the picks. This is probably a hot take, but is anyone surprised when I say stuff like this?
That Arizona trade holy hell. Jarvis is worth more arguably than both players. Yet you want to include 1/2 of the Canes bottom six and a defenseman PLUS PICKS? WOW That's bad.
Skjei straight-up has more value than DeBrusk or Clifton. He's been one of the best defensemen in the league according to underlyings since he arrived in Raleigh.
Neither Motte nor Nyquist is worth a 3rd. Motte was an unsigned UFA going into October. Nyquist was available during the summer and no one wanted him. Not worth it.
A total look at the roster? It's taken several steps backwards. The defense is MUCH worse than it is now, the top six isn't any better. You've got a winger playing C. Nylander has been a downgrade on Necas. This is BRUTAL.
