Ekholm is probably the 3rd or 4th most important player on that team no chance

Even without NSH sending EDM any assets, the picks and Bourgault aren't enough incentive to take on the cap dumps.

The Mike McLeod rumor got squashed a while ago....and the Devils are just as much in the playoff hunt. Give it up EDM fans.

You’re asking Trotz to take on 20 million in cap for a goalie that isn’t even good enough to be an AHL starter. A first is the base for any trade where you’re giving us Campbell for his albatross contract alone.

Ceci is barely top 4. His numbers have not been all that good the past few seasons and considering the place Nashville is, he doesn’t bump anyone out of our right side. He’d be a cap dump to us.

Now add the fact that you’re asking us to give you Saros, Carrier, and Trenin (with retention)… yeah… keep adding. None of what’s in the package is at all enticing.

What @Ennis said.

If EDM wants to get Campbell off the books, a buy out is the most painless way to do it. Trying to trade him to a team that already has two buy outs and two retained contracts on their books is going to cost significantly.

Ceci may have played in the top four for most of his career, but at what point has he played for a team with more than 1-2 good defencemen?

Ceci played on Pittsburgh top 4 with Marino Letang and Mike Matheson
Also Toronto’s top 4 with Rielly muzzin and Barrie
Ottawas top 4 with Dylan demelo and chabot in his last season he played with Ottawa

This season, Ceci has a defensive percentile of 27% (per evolving hockey). With a defensive xG of 8%

He has quite literally never been good unless he's had a linemate to hold him up. Nashville would have 0 use for him as he'd just be a less physical version of Schenn. Just because a coach thrusts him into the top 4 doesn't mean he's good. His analytics have never been good

Literally never. The only time his analytics weren't in the gutter last season was when Nurse was playing too good. This season he's taken a nosedive

That Saros deal has zero chance of happening... Moving Campbell alone is like 1st a 3rd at least.

Then add Saros value to it - all together it would be like 3x 1st + prospect at least

And Ceci played really well in first season here, since then he has been bad. Nurse has to carry him.
