Thread: Its really this easy
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Boomer125</b></div><div>And Chara would sign in NY again for 750 to try and win a cup (better odds there than in Edmonton), Seattle has very little reason to make that trade if they have a hole to fill at RD there will be options to fill that hole and acquire assets while doing so (see Justin Holl in TO) Keumper will get 6 a year from Colorado again better chance better team.</div></div>

That's all understandable. This is obviously what I would like to happen but NYI did miss the playoffs this year fluke or not. Would Chara want to risk another year? I don't think NYI necessarily have better odds than EDM at a cup but I guess this year will show all the FA how serious EDM are right. Kuemper could stay in COL for sure but if he doesn't EDM should be all over it. SEA trade would be up for interpretation ig It's not far fetched it can happen but reasonable to think it won't

Thread: This shouldve stayed in the drafts
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ajp_18</b></div><div>Can’t see Columbus us making that trade, supposedly Jarmo was asking for a 1st+ for Korpisalo a few offseasons ago, which is absurd of a price to pay. So the likely hood is that Jarmo asks for a 1st+ for Merzlinkins.

Also Benson wouldn’t really get a shot in Columbus, they have no real need for more forwards, they have too many already and want to get more ice time for their own prospects like Foudy, Bemstrom, Texier, Johnson, Chinakov and Marchenko.</div></div>

Understandable, I think if CBJ don't commit to something they're stuck in mediocrity so that's why I chose Merzlikins to get traded. If Jarmo is asking a lot maybe a 2022 1st + 2nd and Samorukov or something. I think that would be close to an extreme overpayment

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jjkhairaELTE99</b></div><div>kuzmenko by all reports is going to command in the high 2's to low 4's AAV. Agree with prioritizing internal guys over kane. Merzlinkins is an interesting option but, I'd try to explore the FA market first before considering a deal like that given Campbell, husso, jumper are on the market.

Barrie in dallas is a destination that makes sense. I also have on the shortlist: Seattle, NJ, Islanders, Montreal because those teams need a PP QB. Kass in Arizona seems like a given since the yotes need contracts that go beyond this yr since it'll be a struggle to sign FA's or resign guys to go play in a 5k capacity arena</div></div>

I appreciate the input on Kuzmenko. Had no idea his asking price, Probably use the Pelech money to sign him and get a different LD in FA. I like the idea of Elvis, young, locked down on good deal long term and has every reason to succeed. CBJ is just really bad. If they cant get Campbell or Kuemper than Elvis is my guy.
