-Would rather have Kyle Palmieri (2x$5M, 21-23-44/82 GP over the last 2 seasons) and that pick than Conor Garland (3x$4.95M, 19-32-51/82 GP in the same timeframe.) Garland gets a few extra assists per 82 but I think the extra term and the extra draft capital this deal costs NY is too much.
-Nobody's paying you for those guys. Your best hope is Ross gets sent to Bridgeport and that they can rotate MM & CC through LTIR to keep them both fresh for a playoff run.
-Boston has Charlie Coyle, which makes JGP redundant. I could *maybe* see a deal where they take Palmieri's 2x$5M with Holmstrom & the pick, especially if they want to move on from JDB, but I think even that is an incredibly long shot.
