That's part of the problem with the Nylander trade, it gives SJS another headache looking for trade partners, just to get more assets. As for trade partners for Nylander you could go by teams with the least GF last year. So going by that metric ANA, CHI and CBJ fit that criteria. All have at least 4.7 mil in cap space right now. ANA is in division and conference, CHI is in conference and CBJ is out of conference. So going by in / out of conference preference CBJ is best. Out of those three teams CBJ is in win now mode, and looking at the age of their roster, Nylander fits that age bracket well. The problem with them is that they are already a top heavy team, and don't have a lot of tradable contracts to make room for Nylander. Roslovic and Bean look like the best assets to add to the trade. So maybe something like Nylander for Roslovic + 1st and 3rd, or Nylander for Roslovic, Bean and a 1st. Bean looks injury prone so I don't put much value on him.
