Thread: COMMENT YOUR HOT TAKES
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dannibalcorpse</b></div><div>Thank you for just buying out Mrazek instead of trying to offload him somewhere.

I think you're undervaluing Kampf &amp; Holl in those deals. They're not studs, but I think you can easily get a 3rd for both.

Preds fans seem to love Tomasino but I could see them making that sacrifice if Forsberg walks and they want a top line forward.

I think Gudbranson is unnecessary as a signing - take his $1.9M and split it between higher AAV on the bridge deals for Liljegren &amp; Sandin &amp; about $750K for a league minimum 7th D.

I'm going to give you a crazy hot take here, though - skip signing Marchment, and change your target on Minnesota to Fiala. I think the Wild would put a higher value on Hartman because he's a productive player on a very low AAV - he might be unmovable for them with the cap penalties coming up. But that type of package could get you Fiala, and if you subtract that $3.5M you're giving Marchment, plus the $1.7M you're giving Hartman here, and the $4.3M you have in cap space...well, to my eyes, there's enough to sign Fiala to ~$8M AAV to play that top line minutes and then maybe you keep an affordable winger like Kampf to play the 3rd line, or you let Dubas try and find the next Michael Bunting for ~$1M.</div></div>

Forsberg walking is why I thought of Nash. I like Gudbransen, Marchment and Hartman cus they bring a bit of an element they dont have. Fiala is good but another smaller guy
