Horvat with extension
for col, horvat could only be a rental. also, if they trade their 23 1st, they won't have a draft pick in 2 drafts above a 5th - their pipeline is running dry, contenders rely on elc's overperforming to contend, and this is a fo that employs the analyst who wrote the studies on aging curves. doesn't make sense for col to trade the 23 1st (let alone a roster player on an elc who is playing decent but not so well so as to need a hefty next contract) for a player they can't re-sign. horvat to col trades would be more interesting if they addressed hovat's rental price or how an extended horvat could possibly fit in upcoming seasons ...

Trade aside - Necas in COL system with their skill & speed would probably be amazing. I'd hate to lose him because I think he probably thrives wherever he ends up going but that would be something to see. Think he fits their system perfectly.</div></div>
Sometimes it can make sense to overpay, esp. for contenders - Tampa for Goodrow, Coleman, Hagel; COL for Kuemper (if he can get it back together for the rest of the scf). Not sure tho, if/when CAR will do so ... wonder tho if it might make sense so for a goal-scorer this offseason ...
Brannstrom or Ty Smith could be a buy low PMD candidates for CAR, tho maybe they'd want someone proven at this stage of contention window.
EDIT - these wouldn't be for Necas - more underperforming young defense that i could see CAR buying low on
Necas (and Gurianov, Comtois) might look great in COL's system - but the team doesn't really have the trade chips for under performing former bluechippers that they used to have ...

Necas Girard
Think COL would only move Girard this offseason for quite an overpay, so the plus to Necas would need to be significantly more than a second rounder, and CAR's FO isn't into overpaying. If the cost weren't an overpay, it would be for a Girard-esque player (young, proven NHL'er, good contract for years to come) who can be a more reliable 2C than COL's current, non-Kadri options.

This is an interesting trade, and some good responses to it. While w/the glut on LD, def seems more likely PIT would prefer to move Pettersson (to DET maybe?), they'd get more for Marino and it seems that current management is lower on Marino than Rutherford was, w/all the leaking abt his family being too involved to the athletic awhile ago, etc. Think the value - interesting young roster player + 1st (and potentially a mid-range one) + good prospect (Portillo seems well respected in goalie circles, more so than PIT's current goalie prospects) + clearing some cap - is vry good. Issue is, PIT needs RD almost as much as BUF, so they would need to either get one back (what's the RD situation w/BUF's deep prospect pool?) or figure out their top 4 (sign Letang, line up a top 2RD) before making this move.

Canes head of scouting at CBJ game
Gavrikov, his play and contract term and aav, would be an excellent fit on a contender. However, CBJ values him tremendously and they are keeping quality vets who want to be there as they rebuild. Do not think they would move him except for a significant overpay such as 1st + or bluechip prospect+, which Suzuki and Bokk are generally not considered to be right now. This trade makes sense in terms of Gavrikov's de-contextualized value, but not in terms of his value to CBJ.

Thinking through comparable trades - the Jason Zucker trade seems closest? - 1st, good but not bluechip prospect, usable but meh roster player to make cap work.
At the time Zucker was deemed to be a better player than he is now, signed to a value contract for 3 playoff runs, and Rutherford *really* wanted him. His lesser career point production and positional flexibility offset by increased term. That the trade did not work great for PIT, and how having Addison right now as a RD on an ELC would have more value to a playoff team, is part of why this is a tricky trade for a contender to make.
Other comparables, Palat last year, Teräväinen next year did not/are unlikely to reach the market.

The Byram noise is coming from VAN, making it appear that the onus would be on VAN to overpay for Byram if that is who they really really want, rather than COL for Miller. This sentence could be switched and it then it would make sense from a COL perspective: 'teams will have to overpay for Byram because of the unique situation COL is in if they decide to move him. The only thing that Sakic would consider would be a deal that includes Pettersson.' And VAN fans would respond to this the way COL watchers are responding to the Byram noise.
Crucially, it doesn't make sense for COL to move Byram - young, cost controlled, top D prospect, going through difficulties so that trading him would be disrespectful (something Sakic doesn't do) and selling low (another thing Sakic doesn't do). COL's window/cap structure is bracketed by Rantanen's contract, not MacKinnon's current deal as they've already costed that extension in their plans, something most commentators don't seem to realize. If they perceived their window as MacK's current deal, they would have bridged Makar so as to have more cap right now.

The structure of the Girard trade makes sense, one of the view sensible from COL's perspective Girard trades I've seen.
Tho wonder if COL waits to trade/let walk a top D for the following offseason when DToews is up, esp if Byram and Newhook's bridges are manageable. Not as good asset management, but they may view it as getting more solid runs out of the Rantanen contract window. The MacKinnon, Kuemper, Burakovsky contracts seem light. Think COL will let Burakovsky and Kadri walk, pay Nichushkin, and trade one of Behrens, Helleson, Barron for fwd help that fits their window.

This.
Need + value are inextricably linked, so the q of Chariot's value to CBJ isn't answerable because that team doesn't need him.
Texier + Peake have value to MON because MON needs good players in their age bracket, but so does CBJ so it is doubtful that these teams are well matched as trade partners.
Could see CBJ aiming to sell high on some of their youngsters (like Texier), but that would be for picks/prospects/young players, which is what MON also wants to accumulate. Texier to a contender who values his skill set + cheap contract for a 2nd and B+ prospect at a position of need I could see as his value, tho would think CBJ would want more. Peake prob has more value to CBJ than on the market, making him not a good trade target.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RonaldBilius</b></div><div>cbj wants picks or prospects</div></div>
That makes sense from CBJ's prospective. Isn't Domi tho UFA in the offseason, so their chance to get assets for him is pretty much the deadline? Which contenders would have interest in Domi, and the cap space or an expiring contract that they could send back? Wonder, if Domi isn't as desirable a prospective playoff run player as Savard or Foligno last deadline, a pure picks/prospects trade might not be as feasible.
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Richard88</b></div><div>Olausson is definitely too rich for a rental. He's a recently drafted 1st rounder who the Avs were elated to pick when he fell to them as they had him much higher in the rankings than where they got him (according to both Sakic and the head scout Klippenstein in video interviews post-draft). He's also having a great season this year so his stock has improved. Avs are also short on forward prospects with legit top 6 potential so it's a non-starter; they'd probably sooner trade one of Barron or Helleson than Olausson simply due to positional needs in the organization.</div></div>
It's hard to gauge Domi's value right now, esp the difference between as a playoff rental versus a team that wants to sign him in the offseason (what would his next contract be? comparables?) But seems like those interested might be interested because of the potential to buy low ... tho Kekalainen is a tough negotiator. Have he and Sakic traded recently? feels like most of COL's CBJ alums were walking/were on a different team when acquired.

Anaheim one-stop-shop
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Richard88</b></div><div>Thanks for your rebuttal :)
Makes sense re: the 'value of a 1st'. I guess it would depend on how another organization would value a prospect. For example, Arizona valued Timmins highly due to Alan Hepple (Avs former head scout) having joined Arizona, so the Avs offer of 1st + Timmins carried more weight than what Edmonton could offer.
Yes I do see the funny side with what you're saying. My point was simply that contenders as a whole are missing a few 1sts (these belong to non-playoff teams) which reduces the supply in the market overall, which will make 1st's in general carry more value. But yes of course any other team could trade a 2023 1st as well.
As for your last point, I guess we'll find out :)</div></div>
How teams value/evaluate other teams' prospects is interesting and difficult to gauge. Heard rumors that ANA is higher on Kaut than is COL. Would think Beaucage might have more value to a team that plays w/less than COL.

Whats it cost to get Strome
CHI's price seems to be a 2nd, seems that they haven't been willing to go bellow that, but would probably be willing to take cap back to make the trade. Now they're showcasing him, and he looks excellent between Kane and Hagel - perhaps their best playing C atm. DStrome needs exactly the right fit - top 6, offensive zone time primarily, top wingers, one of whom is defensively responsible. If a team is willing to build their top 6 around those limitations, he'd be an excellent cheap 2C (or even 1B - look at his brother who had similar fit issues before playing w/Panarin). Perhaps BOS could make it fit, but would probably involve shuffling the top 6 to work around his limits.

Realistic miller trades
Don't think MIN is a good trade partner w/their cap situation next season, lack of RD prospects available, and Miller being a better W than C. Perhaps 1st, Greenway, choice of O'Rourke/Lambos/Hunt, but think VAN wants a better package.
COL might do 1st, Barron, roster player (Jost or Compher) but probably only if Miller were significantly retained.
NYR has a polarized history w/Miller, but the rumors are out there. Schneider off the table I'd think, but 1st, Lundquist, Chytil is good value. Not sure how much value Kravtsov has these days.
Think VAN would want an RD prospect of the Barron/Schneider/Lundquist calibre as the centerpiece, and the other parts are less important, so it might come down to who has the RD prospect VAN is highest on who is willing to move them ...
