I could see Perron mayyyybe getting a 1st with full retention - he's a grizzled vet, he has a ring, he's still very productive, so yeah, that's not crazy.
The rest is pretty crazy though:
-Ghost only cost the Hurricanes a 3rd rounder at this past year's deadline, and that was with Arizona giving him the most minutes of his career on a team going nowhere. Not sure why you think he gets a significantly higher value here?
-Clearly, Edmonton would have to add *significantly* here to get the mighty James Reimer, seeing as he has a recent history of putting up incredible numbers and a strong history of coming up big in the playoffs.
-The Islanders have Ryan Pulock, Noah Dobson, and Scott Mayfield all playing RD this year. I can't see any reason (barring injury) that they would be targeting another RHD in Petry, much less giving up a 1st for him when he literally was just acquired for a 4th and a post-hype prospect.
-If Sprong keeps up his pace from last year, I could see him getting a good return - he's 26, making $2M, and is coming off a 20-goal season. Not a terrible value here.
-Fischer needs to make a leap above where he's played at to get this kind of return - I think it's more likely he brings back a later pick and a lottery ticket prospect if Detroit moves him and he's still only a 25-30 point guy.
