Hawks get a significant amount more for lafferty if they move him and aern't retaining

Columbus wouldn't trade Jenner for the Meier package, which should tell you all you need to know about those two offers.

If I remember correctly, Jenner has zero interest in playing in a Canadian market. He doesn't like the fish bowl effect. I can appreciate your interest, though. I think he might be the most under rated player in the NHL playing on the league's best value contract.

I'm really curious to see if Dubas goes for Meier. I don't think he wants to trade Knies but I don't know if Meier can be acquired without Knies. If Meier does get moved I'm really interested to see what the price tag is.

Start with a double-retained Tavares and add if you really want Jenner. Otherwise, don't bother.

Deal

You also need to send out another contract because you have a 51 man roster.

Your pick that might be at the very end of the first round means you can go cheap on the prospect
