You've got at least 4 pending UFAs getting assets back (Reimer, Johansson, Nutivaara, Veronneau) which isn't going to happen. Same to Vegas giving you a mid-3rd round pick for a 5th & 7th. Galimov is staying in Russia so sure, move his rights around all you want I guess.
As far as the deals that can actually happen:
-Can't see the Isles going after Labanc without cap going back. He's a fine middle-6 player, but the Islanders are full up on those and would need to send one out (Josh Bailey) in order to take another in.
-Cicek for a pair of 7ths seems like a waste of a player. He's easily buried on the Barracuda and you don't have to worry about clearing roster spots once July 1st hits so why not keep the body over a pair of picks that are extremely unlikely to turn into anything?
-5th seems fair for Simek, not sure if Nashville's the spot but sure.
-Gregor is a perfectly fine bottom-6 guy, not sure why you're dumping him for a 4th three drafts away. Who's replacing him? Not saying the value is terrible, but just don't see the need to move on from a guy when he'll probably cost $1Mish to retain.
