Description
If the value is off in one of these trades, you can add picks. The concept is what matters here. I just tried to guess what would be fair for both teams.

Utah has an abundance of picks and they could use a reliable young third pairing guy, especially considering they'll probably want to speed up the rebuild.

Dellandrea hasn't worked out in Dallas and they could really use a 3RD. Makes sense for both sides. Dellandrea could maybe become a younger more skilled replacement for Pezzetta.

Ylonen doesn't seem to fit in our system, but he's good enough for the NHL. Wahlstrom really hasn't worked out with NYI. The swap makes sense imo as both players are young pending RFAs that would be better fits on their new team's system.

If Wahlstrom doesn't work out, waive him, put Gallagher/Armia at his spot and put Dellandrea or RHP on the fourth line.

The Kings will probably be looking for a depth energy guy. Pezzetta is cheap and can fill that role.

More can be added if necessary (without giving away too many futures of course), but imo we can afford to give up a defender that will probably get jumped on the depth chart by Mailloux + a late 2nd to dump Anderson. He is still an NHLer but he clearly doesn't fit our system. San Jose isn't in cap trouble obviously and they could really use a young RD.

Keep Anderson that’s not enough to legit move him and you’re not desperate for the cap space.

Kent Hughes said he isn’t paying to trade player, said he wouldn’t even trade player for FC. And trading 3 defenseman in one offseason is unrealistic

This isn’t realistic obviously!

Technically it would be trading 2 D and one D rights. It's improbable, but not completely unrealistic. I think Kovacevic is the one that stays (incase Mailloux/Reinbacher isn't ready to jump). The other 2 will most likely be traded.

Maybe one, that's my take. Probably Harris or Barron

Matheson, Guhle, Hutson, Xhekaj(RFA), Struble, Harris. LHD Harris will be moved.
Savard, Mailloux, Kovacevic, Reinbacher(AHL next year), Barron(RFA). Barron will moved.

Montreal just has to many Defense. They may want to flip for forwards or draft picks. Like they did for Dach(moved Romanov out).

Matheson Guhle Xhekaj Harris Struble (waivers exempt) Hutson (waivers exempt) / Savard Kovacevic Barron Mailloux (waivers exempt) Reinbacher (waivers exempt). So if you send every dman waivers exempt in Laval, that leaves MTL with 7 defenseman

I know he is, that’s why I think they will move one dman to make room for Hutson
