Can't see Yzerman trading a 1st for 34 year old Markstrom.

If he were 4 years younger maybe.

i dont think the Avs expect to resign walker tbh, but sure, this would work if they did.

I think Chicago would accept that one easily.

Flyers decline. They can just get a goalie from free agency

Avs decline. Had Hunt before, no need going forward. Manson is more valuable than Walker and would get a better return than this.

Also, the assumption is that Manson won't go to Canada

For the millionth time, Detroit ain’t giving a 1st to Calgary for their old as dirt goalie.

There's no world where Parekh should be drafted before Iginla. The only reason we should not be selecting Iggy with our own pick is if Catton or Lindstrom are still on the table

Vladar is basically a net negative with regards to his salary. Maybe he’s worth a 1 year flyer, but if you are weaponizing cap space … it would be by retaining on him or Markstrom or both.

Hawks probably decline. Can't see why they'd spend a pick for one season of an overpaid Mangiapane. And Mangiapane wouldn't be on a line w/ Bedard anyway. Kurashev seems to have solidified the RW spot. Hall or Foligno are the likely choices for LW. So that kind of shoots down your rationale for the trade.
