Sorry if this is a bit messy, first time trying this out and attempting a 3-team trade. Details are below.

While I don't like the idea of getting rid of Demko, I wanted to play around with an idea that could (hopefully) work for all teams involved.

My proposal is a three team trade between the Canucks, the Penguins, and the Ducks.

To the Penguins:
-John Gibson
-Anthony Beauvilier

To the Ducks:
-Thatcher Demko
-Nils Hoglander
-Jeff Petry (1.25 mil retained by Van)
-Penguins 2024 2nd RD pick

To the Canucks:
-Mason McTavish
-14OA
-59OA
-First negotiation rights with Tristan Jarry

Penguins get a quality veteran goaltender who reportedly wants out of Anaheim and can help stabilize things for them in net. They also add Beauvillier who can be streaky, but can produce when given talented linemates (which Pittsburgh has). He's also only under contract for another year so they can flip him at the deadline if they don't intend to re-sign. They also manage to dump some cap with the Petry contract coming off the books.

The Ducks add a younger goalie in his prime who is on a good contract and can grow with their young team. They add a veteran D in Petry who may be a bit of a cap dump for the Penguins but could help stabilize Anaheim's back-end for a couple years while their young guys grow into their roles. They lose McTavish, but with Fantilli or Carlsson coming in, that's a postion of strength for them. Adding Hoglander also helps to provide another young, cost-effective middle 6 winger.

The Canucks lose their top goaltender but get a potential stop-gap while Silovs finishes his development. They also clear a bit of cap and get quality returns for their assets, allowing them to restock some positions of need in this draft, or make an additional move if needed.
