The basic thinking of these moves is that Keller is a great player and having a guy as insurance in case something happens with Aho when resigning time comes is very nice. Hellebuyck probably isn’t staying with the Jets, we know NJ and Buffalo are in on him. I’m sure they can give better deals but a good goalie prospect for the rebuild, plus a decent winger, a really good d prospect, and a 1st seems fair to me. The Marner trade probably isn’t good if I’m being honest, that one was more for fun. I do think he could thrive in Carolina though since it’s a smaller market and the pressure isn’t as intense plus having Svech, Aho, and Marner on a line could have insane potential
I’d love to get Patches back on a “show me you’re healthy” deal (something like 2x2) but I’m not sure he agrees to that. If we get him back, then Puljujarvi probably gets dropped.
