Larsson
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CameronSquires</b></div><div>Is this enough for Larsson retained or am I way off?</div></div>
From my POV, you are way off. Hypothetically I think a competitive offer to Larsson would be comparable to the trade Toronto made for Muzzin, something like Niemelä, Robertson, and 2024 first and third round picks. It would cost more on top of that to get the Kraken to retain some of Larsson's cap hit.
Honestly though I don't see the Kraken entertaining trading away Larsson any time soon, he's a critical piece of their team and they don't have any incentive to move him. It has already been reported that Larsson is going nowhere this deadline.

Addressing the Now and the Later at the TDL
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NorthernLeafsFan05</b></div><div>Robertson's inclusion was to supplement the use of our first (plus the other 3rd) based solely on the reports that Treliving wants to keep our 1st. The fact the Leafs are so adamant on keeping the 1st tells me Wes Clark found someone he really likes.
Robertson is a guy I'd like to keep, but the isn't used properly here and a team like Seattle would get a lot out of him. I'd be willing to trade the 1st instead of Robertson, but it doesn't seem like that's the plan at the moment</div></div>
Robertson's a quality secondary piece, but I don't think he has the trade value to the point where him plus a third round pick in 2025/26 equals a first round pick. In my mind it would hypothetically take something like Niemelä, Robertson, and first and third round picks to get the Kraken to seriously listen.
I will say that the odds of Larsson being dealt anytime soon are basically zero, it's been reported Seattle isn't open to moving him and from my POV there are just too many reasons for them to keep him and not enough for them to trade him.

reilly needs a partner
Seattle's not going to have any interest in round two of The Martin Jones Experience. The Kraken's goaltending is actually in decent shape with the emergence of Daccord and Grubauer returning from injury to put in a couple of strong performances, so there's no need to bring Jones back.

Call the Kraken
As a Kraken fan, I think the price you have for Borgen is pretty decent, though Timmins and Lagesson are more fringe NHL defensemen than bonafide NHL blueliners in my estimation. However, I doubt the Kraken are going to seriously entertain trading away non-rentals this deadline and they seem to really value what Borgen brings to the team.
As for Eberle, I believe the Kraken could get more for him than what's offered here should they choose to sell him. It's also been rumored that Seattle wants to keep him around and may re-sign him instead of trading him.

Triple L - Leafs land Larson
The Leafs won't be landing Larsson with that offer. Seattle isn't going to be inclined to trade such an important piece of their team, so it'll take an offer too good to refuse to get them to seriously consider pulling the trigger on a deal. A package of late first and fifth round picks doesn't qualify as that on its own, let alone with Seattle sending picks back to Toronto on top of it. The Leafs would have to offer quite a bit more to get the Kraken to actually listen.

Seattle would respectfully decline that. Tolvanen's a great fit for the Kraken and their roster timeline. He's more valuable to them than some futures who may or may not crack the NHL, and even if they do, won't make an impact for several years.

Given their respective contract situations and handedness, along with the fact that Hanifin is apparently destined for the open market this summer, I'd say Larsson has at least the same trade value as Hanifin at the moment. That being said, I think Calgary would want to aim younger in a Hanifin trade return.

A deal of that framework makes zero sense for the Kraken whatsoever. Hanifin is apparently adamant about testing free agency, so he'll be a rental to whoever acquires him. Including Larsson in this deal undermines the whole point of trading for Hanifin and would seriously hurt the Kraken over the rest of the season, which is the timespan they'd be acquiring Hanifin for in the first place. Given their current standing, Seattle has no business trading for rentals this year, let alone giving away their top pairing RHD for one.

Leafs
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>fangm</b></div><div>Larsson is a bad pickup. If Leafs get him it should be for a 2nd, nothing more.</div></div>
Seattle would never go for that in a million years. No team is going to trade a top four RHD with term for just a second round pick, especially considering the Leafs don't have one until 2027.
Honestly I doubt the trade above gets a deal done either. To me a better comparable would lie between the McCabe and Ekholm trades (skewing closer to the Ekholm deal), and that's if Seattle even entertains moving Larsson, which I don't think they ultimately will.

Next year
Honestly, I don't see how the Seattle trade makes sense for either side. Seattle's in more of a contending phase, so having Bjorkstrand, a proven top six winger, is more valuable to them than a late first and a winger prospect whose ceiling is probably what Bjorkstrand is right now. There's no guarantee Gushchin reaches that level anyway, and even if he does it won't be until years down the road. San Jose on the other hand is in a deep rebuild, so they should be hoarding prospects and draft picks, not trading them away for someone whose contract will likely expire before the Sharks are ready to return to contention at the NHL level.

Worth a shot
I mean, the Avalanche could definitely give that trade offer a shot, but the Kraken would reject it pretty quickly. Johansen and Wennberg have basically the same point production, only Johansen doesn't do any of the other things Wennberg does when it comes to playmaking and contributing defensively. There's a pretty sizable gap in value between the two. If Seattle is open to trading Wennberg, Colorado would have to give up something of real value to get the Kraken to consider a swap.

Other Fans Help Me Out
In all likelihood, Seattle will not be trading Larsson anytime soon. Even if they end up selling at the deadline this year, they will be looking to reload for a return to contention next season. Larsson plays a huge role on the Kraken currently and would continue to do so next year as well. For that reason, I believe the Kraken will be VERY reluctant to move him, and wouldn't consider doing so barring a package too good to refuse. Of the trade pieces you've listed, only Niemelä, Robertson, and the first round pick would be higher value assets in my opinion. If you packaged all three of them together with maybe a third round pick as well, that might be a fair offer for Larsson in a vacuum (depending on how the Kraken feel about Niemelä and Robertson). However, that offer may get beat by other interested teams should Larsson hypothetically end up on the trade block.

Seattle is never going to go for that. For as good as Guentzel is, he's a rental until proven otherwise. The Kraken are in no position to be giving up that huge of a package for any rental right now.

Seattle wouldn't go for that trade offer. Even if they fall out of the playoff race this year, they will be looking for a swift turnaround next season. Larsson and Daccord would be major parts of that, so they're not going anywhere barring an offer too good to refuse. This isn't that. The draft capital isn't enough for both players, and Brodie and Jones, by virtue of being expiring contracts, would have little value to the Kraken except as sallary ballast in this scenario, as trading Larsson and Daccord would signal they are punting on this year. And yes, I am aware Seattle could theoretically flip Brodie for another asset, but I'm not convinced he has much standalone trade value considering his cap hit, age, and step back in play.

Seattle rather quickly declines that trade offer. The gap in value between Larsson and Ceci is much more than a single second round pick. Seattle isn't likely to trade Larsson at all anyway, and Larsson himself wouldn't be willing to return to Edmonton for personal reasons.

Seattle isn't going to be giving up draft capital to dump Driedger. His contract is expiring at the end of the season and isn't hindering their current financial flexibility in any meaningful way. Worst case scenario, he'll just remain in Coachella Valley as the Kraken's third goaltender.

Seattle's not going to go for that. McCann is on the more valuable deal, and is much more well-rounded as a player than Kuzmenko. He also fits the Kraken roster much better than Kuzmenko, who for all his offensive talent, doesn't really fit the mold of forward the team has targeted in the past.

What do krakens fans think of this
Personally, I'm not a fan of this, and I don't think the Kraken will be either. The team appears to really value Borgen and are intent on keeping him around. Timmins doesn't really fit the roster when the Kraken already have Dunn, Evans, and Schultz around as offense-first blueliners. Seattle already has plenty of capable wingers, so another winger like Robertson isn't as much of a need as a defensive RHD like Borgen. All in all, this swap doesn't make much sense for the Kraken given their present roster construction.

If Seattle ends up selling some veteran rentals at the deadline, Wennberg with half his cap hit retained would cost in the neighborhood of a second round pick in my opinion. However, I'm not sure Montreal would be likely destination, they probably shouldn't be trading for veteran rentals right now.

FWIW I don't think your offer from Larsson is all that far off in a vacuum, it's just that the Kraken aren't going to be inclined to trade him anytime soon. With how they've clawed their way back into the postseason picture and how important Larsson is to the team, Seattle can't really afford to lose him.

Driedger
Driedger's kind of in a weird spot. He returned from an ACL tear at the start of the season and has essentially played one NHL game in two seasons, meaning it's impossible to get a true gauge on his trade value. Meanwhile, the Kraken need him as a backup for Daccord with Grubauer injured, but who knows what happens when Gru is ready to return.
Long story short, a lot could happen between now and the deadline. It'll be hard to figure out whether Driedger will be available until Grubauer returns and where the Kraken are in the standings at that point, and we won't have a good idea of any potential trade value until he plays some more games.

In a vacuum, the value isn't bad, though personally I'd prefer Niemelä to either Robertson or Timmins. But I have a hard time envisioning any scenario where Seattle considers trading Larsson right now. They're on a good run of form and clearly still gunning for the playoffs this season, with the aim of continuing to do so in the near future as well. Larsson is just too important a piece of the roster to lose.

My ideal situation for this year
Seattle wouldn't be interested in that trade. Borgen's an important part of the Kraken defense, both for now and the future. Meanwhile, they have a surplus of wingers now that Burakovsky and Schwartz are back, so much so that Yamamoto, a player who would be a lineup lock on many other teams, has been getting scratched lately. Robertson in all likelihood wouldn't be able to crack the Kraken's starting lineup.

Trade Deadline Playoffs
I think if Seattle ends up selling at the deadline, they'd most likely accept that offer very quickly before the Avs change their minds, although it's looking less and less likely the Kraken will be sellers given their recent form. However, I'm fairly certain Colorado wouldn't offer that deal unless something happened with Byram that I don't know about. With a trade package like that, they could aim higher in their search for a long-term second line center.
