I gotta think Edmonton declines to pay that much to get Campbell 2.0 and Dallas definitely ain’t doing that lol

Not sure Provorov is much better than Krug at this point lol. Certainly not trading 2 1sts or Stenberg to make the swap.

that's a very easy no for the blues. We are not competing so Provorov isn't a need or a want. I wouldn't trade a first to dump Krug, just ride out the contract and maybe a buy out in a 2 years.
