This is actually one few decent trades I saw for Liljegren. Even with leaf fans. Liljegren's deal should be similar to what Sandin got with a first and a depth cap dump piece. So a 2nd and a 4th is a decent deal. As a Leafs fan, I want to say no because I view liljegren still with good potential to trade a 2nd rounder for when we need the right handed homegrown defenceman badly.

For Carolinas sake, this is a fair deal. It's not an overpay nor an underpay and gives them a young good controllable defenceman with potential to grow

Need to dump Kotkaniemi in this scenario and reallocate that cap to the blue line.

Would love to see Nikishin come next year, but he’s still under contact in the KHL.

I would die if we only got a 2nd and 4th for Liljegren after paying a 3rd and 5th for Edmundson

is this for 25-26 season? if not Nikishin won't be here yet
