Thread: Is this enough
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Yes, and Dubas is on record that unlike his strategy in previous years, this season it may make sense to go after a UFA as his primary target. Granlund as the forward allows Toronto to go 8 and 1 for Seattle, exposing Kerfoot and Engvall as the qualified forwards and Holl and Dermott on the back end, thus assuring that 5 of this season's 6 primary defensemen (plus Sandin and Liljegren if not traded) return.</div></div>


<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jchafe77</b></div><div>Add Kerfoot and possibly another draft pick (a 2nd or 3rd in 2022 or 2023) to this and I think they could be sold on this. If not, throw in a lower tier prospect like SDA or Abramov</div></div>

Redid the trade. Is the value closer now?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>My issue isn't about the value of the respective trade elements but the entire Forsberg-Ekholm strategy. With Forsberg, you have 5 forwards you have to protect in the expansion draft and with Ekholm you have what seem to me to be 4 defensemen you'll want to protect. So how do you resolve that conundrum short of an expensive side deal with the Kraken, thereby adding to the cost of the acquisition?

I like the oft-suggested Granlund-Ekholm alternative much better. I wonder who proposed it first?</div></div>

I didn’t think about that. So you think maybe it’s be easier going after Granland? He’s cheaper and expiring next year so maybe Nashville would be willing to retain half on him for a lot less?
