What i would do without trading Knies or the 1st
I love the Barbashev fit, not so much Bonino. I don't think he's either the player that fits what the Leafs currently do or that gives them an extra element.

Hughes has been a top five center in the league this year, no way should Horvat be in consideration. It should be either Meier or Vejmelka (or both, depending on what Arizona would want).

Very little incentive for the Caps to take that deal. The only halfway logical reason to do it is if there's another deal to bring in Erik Karlsson, but even then I don't think it's something the Caps would entertain.

And hard pass on the Kane deal. He isn't that good anymore. Not paying that much for a rental. Use the same package, add a little more and go get Meier.</div></div>
I’d also like Meier. I like the idea of reuniting Kane and Strome, and the impact Kane could have on the power play. I also think the supporting cast in Chicago this year has impacted Kane’s numbers/performance and that he could still be a huge boost

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ichbinian</b></div><div>So you want to get smaller and easier to play against for the playoffs.</div></div>
Just because Mantha is a big guy doesn't mean he plays big. He hasn't consistently played well all year. Garland plays with more tenacity and work ethic, which I'd say is more difficult to play against than a big body who doesn't use it. Regarding Eller, you're getting everything he does and then some with Backstrom coming back. Swapping him out for Kane is a) necessary financially, and b) makes the offense much more dynamic and gives the power play insane potential. So I definitely see this as an upgraded team.

Make Room
Sheary is essential to the lineup, I wouldn't get rid of him. I know he doesn't do anything sexy, but man is he effective as the first forward in on the forecheck and winning puck battles. As cliche as it is, you need players like him to win in the playoffs.

I want him back with my whole heart but the same coaching staff is here that forced the trade in the first place. Unless there's a plan to integrate him and get him favorable matchups, I can't imagine the coaches are going to GMBM asking to pick him up

I think the value for Couture is more than fair, I just don't think the Caps would do that given how well Strome has played, I'm sure they'd rather simply extend him

Anyone with cap space. Arizona, San Jose, etc. Throw in an extra pick if need be, the specifics of the trade aren't too important.

I wouldn't want to, but that seems like the most likely scenario given Laviolette's history. I'd rather put Sheary on the fourth line and scratch Protas, but it's not like he's played poorly. Can't really go wrong.

That wouldn't really work for the Caps right now. The point of trading Eller is to free cap space to get Backstrom off of LTIR, so maybe there's another place he can go. The main concept is that he's getting shipped out.

I don't get why Chicago would throw in picks to this. Kaut essentially has zero value since he just went unclaimed on waivers, so I imagine this is an easy no from them

Cup repeat - Avs at trade deadline
I can't imagine Edmonton sending Puljujarvi to Colorado for that price. All they'd be doing is potentially strengthening some of their top competition in the West for a very minimal return. If that's all he's worth, I'm sure there's a team in the East that'll take the flyer on him

Would we be better off if this happened instead
Marino is the only one on here I'd say for certain would be nice to do. I'm definitely not ready to say the Debrincat trade was a dud. He was just playing with Patrick Kane, there's going to be an adjustment period obviously. And obviously there's no guarantee Brown would tear his ACL four games in like he did with Washington, but the trade was probably necessary to gain a pick back.
