    Jake Guentzel will get close to $9,000,000 per.

    Edmonton can't afford Merzlikins without Campbell going the other way, They're already up against the cap.

    Swayman isn't available, And he's probably going to command more than 5 x $5,000,000.

    Chychrun for Laine, Yeah makes perfect sense. trade two injury prone guys for one another.

    If it's done in the offseason we can just buy him out

    The more I look at it, the more it feels like either:

    (1) EDM and CBJ do a Merzlikens for Campbell trade, more or less straight up. I think Elvis is the better G, but EDM would be taking on a teeny-bit more cap; but, I still think you could see something like Elvis for Campbell plus a mid-rounder.

    (2) LAK. The King have a stout defense that would make Elvis’ life a whole lot easier, and his numbers a whole lot better (I.e. exactly what happened to Korpi last TDL). They also have all of their Gs hitting UFA this offseason, and getting on in years.

    (3) Send Elvis to Vegas. Cause obvs.

    So the Bruins trade their 25yr old All-Star Goaltender for a LHD they don't need, that's only got 1yr left on his deal.....and a pair of picks? Ya that's not going to happen.

    Ok, person who is clearly not Jeremy Swayman wink. If you don't want to go to Columbus, you can just say so.

    I agree though, Boston will probably move heaven and earth to keep him (you?), and it's not an enticing enough package to move him.
