Thread: Not assuming this is realistic but
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Quillanrocks</b></div><div>Fair or not, the 1st Rounder is the only thing I think Francis might be prepared to part with from that deal, IMO. And you nailed it, an agreeable contract extension would be a must.</div></div>

I hear you but I think Nylander will be much better than Wright for 2-3 years at least, we'll see after that. Liljegren is more of a bet if you believe in his talent, I think he's better than given credit for. Nylander with an 8 year extension and Liljegren still under team control for Wright and Larsson I think is a good deal for both teams depending on where Seattle believes their window is. They have a lot of cap space coming up and lots of great Cs to add next free agency to complement Beniers. More leaned to Toronto's side due to their needs but I don't think its a bad trade for either team and over time could potentially end up being a fleece for Seattle.

Thread: Not assuming this is realistic but
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Quillanrocks</b></div><div>Most of it comes from the idea (falsehood) that Wright's been a disappointment, beginning with his falling in the draft and then second because he didn't tear it up his first season---even in a 24 game playoff showing with Coachella.

Second, it's the idea Seattle absolutely <em>needs</em> a gamebreaking winger, despite being 4th in league scoring last year and having solid depth in that position, already.

Then ultimately it comes down to teams out there who see an easy fit for the trade they fear needs making due to financial restraints. . . . "What, a team with cap space, oodles of picks and a top prospect---yes please!" . . . "While we're at it, we'll take that affordable shutdown RHD from you too, please and thank you!"

Not saying Nylander isn't a good player and Francis shouldn't look into him, but seriously doubt he entertains moving Wright and Larsson to do so.</div></div>

I think without the first coming back and a Nylander extension with a single digit number, this is a pretty fair deal
