There might be something to that at least? I'm unsure if I like the value here though.

Essentially, Tarasenko = 1st


Then it's Chychrun + Forsberg 50% retained for Whiteclound, Thompson and Sapovaliv. Maybe it's good, but it feels light to me. If I was more convinced that Thompson was gonna be a bonafide starter, or that Whitecloud was more a 2nd pair guy than a 3rd pair guy. Maybe add a 2nd? Then Ottawa goes and actually pulls off a Tanev deal? I can at least see how this could lead to Ottawa being better.

The Kings went on the record to say they were bummed that they lost Bjornfot. They would absolutely take him back if Vegas puts him on waivers.

I would def consider this

I would love Edstrom as one of them instead of sapovaliv

I think it makes sense for both sides if it happened. Sens can afford to lose Chych if they get players that help them now like Whitecloud and Thompson, Knights have depth on RD that they could lose WC and Hill is the clear #1. Forsberg was just a one stop shop inclusion not crazy about him or anything just need someone to be backup if Thompson was gone. Any difference in value needed to be made up if Sapovaliv wouldn't be enough could be worked out. Neither player is one who I'm eagerly trying to move or anything but you gotta give to get

I really like Edstrom tho tbh but Sapovaliv is nice too

that dont get chych yet alone adding Senko
