Schenn will get more, doubt Sweeney moves Zboril, and doubt ANA moves Vatrano for that.

Also not a good idea to run with a 21 man roster

Schenn will probably fetch a third I just didn't want to get crucified. I personally dislike Zboril, and trading him makes the cap work. Vatrano went for a fourth last year, and I think the rumored asking price was a third. I just traded smith for cap/change of scenery.

Once playoffs role around cap doesn't matter so Bruins have Greer, Wagner, Reilly, and Marc waiting in the wings.

Ya but BOS will want to rest some key guys before the playoffs.

True. Not sure how that would work.

Can’t take Vatrano cap after this year. It will be a rental like Bjugstad or Acciari.

They are going to have to shed cap next year as it is, they are not going to add to it for bottom 6er.

Not giving away Zboril.

Wasn't aware Vatrano's contract was 3 years whoops. Other than Zborils cheap cap hit I'm not sure why we're still holding onto him he's mediocre.

Unrealistic as far as Anaheim is concerned. As a strategic matter, it would be very short-sighted for the Ducks to sign a free agent to a three-year deal and then trade him away after only three-quarters of his first season. That's a recipe for never getting a moderate FA (i.e., one who can't command a NMC) ever again, or at least while that GM has his job. Now, it's possible that Vatrano might ASK for a trade, but that seems unlikely in view of his being one of the first two signings Pat Verbeek made.

Canucks rejected a second for Schenn, so rethink your expectations

I have a hard time believing the Canucks rejected a second for Schenn. If they did it's just another example of why they find themselves in the position that they are in.

Vatrano is a downgrade no matter where you put him.

pointless trades, Sweeney is a moron but not this stupid

Really? I didn't know that.

I agree the Vatrano one is dumb, I wasn't aware of his contract, but the Schenn one makes sense. The Bs are in the market for depth D going into the playoffs, along with forward depth. That's why Vatrano came to mind.
