Thread: Youth trades and UFAs power to playoffs
Yzerman is not going to want Danielson playing in the NHL straight from Jr's (even if he is ready) especially if he's getting 4th line minutes.

Soderblom is having a good playoff run in the AHL after having a good stretch run. He's already been in the NHL for a 20+ game stretch so I could see him making the team out of camp--esp if Fabbri is traded. However, the more realistic scenario is he plays one final year in the AHL and works on his aggressiveness and compete levels as a top 2 line guy there eating minutes.

Berggren is not playing on the 2nd line. He'd be lucky to get 3rd line minutes (as I think the Wings want a checking line). I think he is the prospect to include in these trades as he's the most NHL ready.

AND I doubt Stamkos leaves Tampa. BUT EVEN IF HE DOES--Stamkos can no longer play centre's (he's now a winger). So there's your 2nd line winger in your scenario and move Compher back to 2nd line centre.

I hope Yzerman is ready to go 4 years with Kane as that is how he gets him to re-sign. But Yzerman doesn't like to give term to almost anyone. So unfortunately, I think Kane moves and gets paid.

There is no way Maatta is back. 1) He's the one d-man without any trade protections. 2) He makes too much for a 3rd pair--esp when 2 guys making close to league minimum (one ELC the other a bridge deal) are available to take over, and 3) he a LHD on a d-core full of them.

You'd have to throw in sweetners and retained salary to get rid of Copp. Quite frankly he's going to be a part of this team and an expensive 3rd line winger.
