Or if you want we could do a 2020 4th and a 2019 7th OR a 2020 4th and a prospect OR a 2020 3rd OR a 2019 3rd for Claesson and a 6th OR Claesson and a 5th for a 2018 3rd
Waiting to hear from another team about Claesson. if they offer us a 2019 or 2018 4th we'd do it but if they don't you can have him for a 2020 4th if you want.

More importantly, let’s talk Lehner. I’d need to retain half on Lehner for this year in order to keep you guys under the cap.

There are some pieces that might be part of a Lehner deal but the problem is, there's another guy we want (a different position) that we might need to use those pieces to get. We're not too interested in giving up multiple picks for Lehner. We could include a pick but we don't want to give you 2/3 picks for him. What about Condon as part of the deal? Or Claesson, but the option is still available of a 4th in 2020 for him.

It’s not like I’m asking for a bunch of high picks. A 2019 2nd, and a 2018 4th basically have to be included. I don’t really care about Claesson anymore, and Condon doesn’t have any value to me.

We don't want to give up a 2019 2nd ... maybe a 2018 4th but we don't have a 2nd or a 5th this year so it just gets rid of another one of our 2018 picks.

Then offer something else. Stop making me play this guessing game and make an offer
This offer you and you AGM are talking about, please don’t bother with such a low-ball offer. I already told you Condon doesn’t interest me, and I’m sure as hell not adding onto him.
We're gonna start here, not sure if you think this is too low or not:
Lehner 50% retained, 4th
for
Chlapik, Jaros, and Condon
If you don't like it you can suggest something different.
Counter
Robin Lehner (50% retained)
Christian Wolanin
Filip Chlapik
Filip Ahl
2018 4th round pick
I am adding nothing you Lehner, and I’ve already expressed the lack of interest I have in Condon. I’ve also expressed my need for at least one draft pick. Have you listened to anything that I’ve said about this deal?

We'll discuss this. We don't want to take extra cap, that's why we're talking about including Condon.
