The pick is definitely going the wrong way in the MTL deal especially if they are retaining on both players for 2 years.

SJ won’t be retaining on what is already an excellent contract.

Take a look at the Sharks depth chart and see why we wouldn't trade RD for LD. Especially not a guy who is 2 years older, and signed for one less year. A 4th and 5th don't really make up the difference there. Merill seems like a cool dude, but I don't think we trade half of our NHL level RD's to acquire him.

I'd love Connor but there's too many pieces involved in that deal and if were going to move high picks and Rossi then we absolutely have to be getting a relatively young top line center coming back.

Minnesota declines. First if all Minnesota doesn't have the cap. Second, Minnesota isn't giving up all that for a player whose little better than Fiala who was traded. Overvaluing him. Minnesota isn't trading fleury, nor is he waiving for Minnesota to take on capdump Jake Allen. Lol crappy proposals for Minnesota they wouldn't do

What on earth is that MTL deal ?! We ain't taking him for FC and you want us to retain 3.75M for 2 years and also give you a 3rd rounder on top of the value dvorak and Allen have has players ?!?!?!?!

I don’t see San Jose doing either trade. No retention on Ferraro and maybe that works. Benning has a steal of a contract, I don’t see them moving him without a nice pick coming back

The retention involved in these trades is completely unrealistic.

Dude, that's just objectively false. Connor is closer to Kaprizov than Fiala. I would seriously suggest to start paying attention to other teams other than Minnesota if that's your take on the guy.

That said, he's not worth half that. There's no scenario where he gets BOTH Rossi and Khusnutdinov. It's one or the other. Minnesota isn't giving up both of their top center prospects for any winger or player that isn't a Matthews/McDavid/McKinnon level center.
