Quoting: Mediumyeet
Too much for Pesce. 13 + 39 + a 24yr old RHD that plays over 20mins a night is a ridiculous ask. Drop the 2nd then maybe.
More even.
The Ekholm trade is a good template, but needs to be adjusted for the fact Pesce only has 1 year left on his deal and he isn't as well rounded a player as Ekholm.
Edmonton traded:
Tyson Barrie · $4,500,000
Reid Schaefer · $0 (AHL/JR) (B prospect who was #32 OA the previous draft)
2023 1st round pick (EDM - #24)
2024 4th round pick (EDM)
And received:
Mattias Ekholm ($250,000 retained - 4%) · $6,000,000 for 3.5 seasons
2024 6th round pick (NSH)
This proposal is richer for less of a player with much less term.
