No Marner Trade - Most Likely smaller scenarios
Columbus don't have any need for Järnkrok or Liljegren. The return for a trade package around Provorov would either have to be a stopgap 1C (long-term 2C) or, far more likely, simply draft picks.

Columbus wouldn't be interested in a deal with Jarnkork. To much log jam in the middle/bottom 6 as is to add another piece into it. More than likely we move provy for prospects/picks more towards the deadline. Unless you want to work elvis into that deal at which point we can start having some talks.

I edited my previous post to make clear that I was speaking in case of a buyout.
I don't think they should move out Merzlikins by locking themselves into another long and bad deal. If they can trade him with retention for nothing or more, they should do it, in my opinion.

I say no for Columbus. Grubauer has a way worse 5v5 GSAx number and a worse contract in case of a buyout.

I think you did pretty well for your 1st. The thing that anyone on here rarely does is ask does the other team want these pieces. If the asnwer is no, then you either have to send pieces they would want or add compensation to convince to take those pieces anyway.
Like your Jackets trade, the Jackets are definitely interested in trading away Boqvist, but the players you are sending have essentially no value to us, so you either need to send other pieces or add to what you are sending. I think your trade to the jackets just needs simplified to trading for Boqvist for a 3rd or something like that.

Jackets definitely decline. Well trade you Boqvist for a pick, but everything else in this trade isnt of any interest.

Tkachuk type trade every team 8
Werenski likely is (and should be) untouchable. He'd be the next captain, and like Jenner, signed specifically to stay in Columbus.
It also doesn't make sense with roster construction at all. We don't have another LD (or any defenseman) of that caliber, while Marner and Gaudreau are redundant in playstyle as you more or less said yourself. Johnson is also redundant in terms of playstyle, and Laine is redundant in terms of highly-paid wingers. Marner is a redundant luxury for Columbus.
If we're building a Marner trade to Columbus, I think it has to involve two of Johnson, Laine, and Gaudreau (in that order of likelihood), otherwise we just say thanks but no thanks, we don't need him.

No from Columbus. KK is an expensive 3C, who may grow into an okay-but-not-great 2C.
We have cheaper-better KK (Jenner), cheaper-younger-better KK (Sillinger), and bigger-better-Russian KK (Voronkov) already in the same role.

I was going to phrase it as that the Hurricanes are going to have to pay the Blue Jackets a lot to buy Kotkaniemi out for them.

3-way trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CaseyFlyman</b></div><div>I think recency bias is at play, too. He had a terrible year this past season because of two dirty hits that knocked him out for the season. But he's played the majority of games even if he hasn't played a full season each of the other years here, and has performed pretty well.
I'm not expecting anyone to take a chance on Laine, but I'm also not expecting Columbus to move him. But it would take a good offer (like a 1st-line return) to move a guy who's been a 1st liner when in the lineup. I could also see conditional picks (like two 2nds, and one upgrades to a first if he plays 60+ games, the other upgrades if he scores 25+ goals, for example). Something to mitigate the risk for both teams.
It's all about mitigating risk; there's high risk for an acquiring team that he stays injured or can't regain form. There's medium risk he bounces back elsewhere and Columbus sells low on an asset we should have held onto. But there's zero risk in Columbus keeping him, his trade value won't go much lower, and we need a player like Laine anyway. That's why we should keep him instead of selling low.</div></div>
That is an entirely fair point.
I agree with the conditionnal picks that may mitigate risks. My understanding is that he had alcohol/drugs/mental health issues - not a hockey play injury. Because, a dirty hit does not devalue a player in IMO.
Again, not sure about the 1 for 1 - but a decent package is to be expected.

He's in the Player Assistance Program, and the official reason is to focus on mental health. There's no real drug/alcohol concerns that we know of, or at least that have been made public.
Anything beyond "mental health" is pure speculation, but he did lose his father unexpectedly in November. Between that, and frequent injuries/illnesses disrupting this year, I really don't blame him. Just hoping he can come back in a good spot.
