This is waaaaaay too much for Duchene

I think Markov is not coming back and Bergevin will move on and it will be too late when Markov decide to lower his demands. You have 2 players too many on your roster. Should be 23. I'm not sure Sakic would go for that deal for Duchene, but I hope he would. Mtl is playing the fast skating concept, so I think they will never make an offer to Jagr who is slow. Grigorenko just signed a 3 years contract in the KHL. Galchenyuk will go to arbitration and would winn at least 5M$ for a 1 or 2 years contract before becoming a UFA. No chance he would sign 3.5M$ for 2 years. His party buddy (Beaulieu) just left, so maybe you could take a chance at signing him at 5.5M$ for 4 to 6 years. The Smith signature intrigues me, that might be good since Vegas looks like they only want very avg players or picks making sure they will finish last and pick first for the naxt 5 to 8 years. I think you worked hard at making this line up. Well done.
