wayyyyy to low for Manson

factual, however, Manson is the odd-man out. His value is sinking since other GM's know that he is the odd-man out. I think that if the pick was of higher value, then the trade would go through

You aren't anywhere close on any of these trades

I don't understand why Vegas is giving anything back to Chicago. They are under absolutely no obligation to do such a thing. By including TvR as incentive for VGK to bail the Hawks out on Kruger's $3.1M hit, that is the deal right there, not sending a draft pick back. Personally, I would rather trade the two mentioned above to Toronta for Bozak. The Maple Leafs are said to be interested in Kruger for their 4th line, and want Nylander to play center. That makes pending UFA Bozak available. The van Riemsdyk brothers would also be teammates for a year. Seems like a practical, unspectacular trade. Kruger's hit will be gone when it comes time to pay for their prized forwards in two years as well. The two deals involving guys waiving their security blankets don't seem to be realistic, even tho Seabrook is from Vancouver. And Raanta, I seem to recall him pretty much badmouthing the organ-IZ-ation DURING the '15 Cup run. Not sure why they would want to bring this sort of history back into the room. I could see the Anaheim deal but they may want a higher pick like oilnate alluded to. I also like the RFA signings.

I understand completely. People are having VGK sending compensation for something that needs zero compensation

Vata

Vatanen is the odd man out

probably too much for Manson. Motte is a top prospect.

Manson is a top-4 defensemen and Motte is not a 'top" prospect...
