Do They Fit Spoiler NO
You want to keep that 2022 first rounder if you're thinking long term. You're going to need players on ELCs over the next few years, so I would be hesitant to move that pick. I don't think Comtois is being moved either.
Paying way too much for Lehkonen and Kulak. I'd focus on top 6 scoring options for the right wing, rather than 2 way forwards in the top 9.

Thoughts on a Giordano Trade at TDL
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HOCKEYBOY448</b></div><div>We will have to agree to disagree here. They aren’t gonna win anything this year and wasting assets on rentals or older players will not do anything meaningful for them. This team is getting lit up in the 1st round. They need experience in the playoffs for any meaningful run. They’re realistically a year or 2 out from when they should actually make moves like this. Anything sooner is premature imo. Obviously they most likely will make a stupid trade or few of them and it’ll be pointless.</div></div>
Regardless of wherever you think this team will finish, you probably want to build a winning culture, and I think sometimes that may cost a few expendable assets. I agree with you that it's doubtful they'll make a deep run, but maybe they grab a couple of rentals and they can win a round? I think it sends the wrong kind of message to the locker room to sit there and do nothing. That being said, that first rounder they have should be kept at all costs. That I think we can agree on.

I don't think NYR are ready to move on from Lundkvist just yet. NYR have other defensemen in the pipeline though that have good value and would be worth moving a rental like Rakell for. Examples include Matthew Robertson and Hunter Skinner. You could probably grab another pick along with one of those guys.

Yes I think you are correct, see the link here for a quick summary: https://puckpedia.com/salary-cap/performance-bonuses-and-carryovers
I actually think only Kravstov (a 1:1 trade) could do it, too. NYR can't use him but he's still a former top 10 pick and there could be a market for Kravstov if he's not coming back to NYR (which is likely).

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Fox_Czar_Cup</b></div><div>We can go on a serious run easily. Igor+++, anything can happen. 100% right, don't waste precious assets on rentals! Package the excess for elc C at least.</div></div>
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HOCKEYBOY448</b></div><div>This is my point exactly. Don’t think short term. If it was for a young cheap center I could certainly get behind making a big deal. But the idea of trading multiple young assets for guys close to 30 and making the team older completely defeats the purpose of this so called rebuild. At that rate if that’s the strategy, may as well trade Kakko, Schneider, Laf, Chytil, Kravtsov, Lundkvist, Jones and Othmann and 2-3 1sts and just go all in this year and next year. After that we’d just be a middling team with nothing in the development system.</div></div>
Apologies, but struggling to see what I offered that would be considered "precious" for NYR. I think it's more than realistic that for the next 4 years the right side of the defense will be Fox Trouba and Schneider (assuming Schneider is bridged), so moving Skinner is not going to ruin the farm. Skinner is already 22 and every year where he sits in the AHL his value declines. I think he's a good asset but realistically he's not going to be a staple in the NYR lineup and I don't think you're getting stand-alone value for him, so moving him along with a contract you want to be rid of is a solid move. By the time Skinner would get a substantial opportunity, he'll be 26 and 1 year away from UFA where he'll likely walk. Additionally, NYR can afford to move one (NOT BOTH) of the second rounders they have in this draft; looking long-term, regardless of whether the pick is a forward or defenseman, he will probably not be able to crack the lineup (he's going to compete with all the young players currently on the roster, the other early picks from this year, and also the likes of Othmann, Cullye, Robertson and Lundkvist, just to name a few). And you could argue that whoever that pick becomes has value, but again, you run into that same problem where he'll sit in the AHL and his stock will depreciate if he doesn't crack the lineup.
We can agree to disagree what the cost of moving Nemeth would be, but I'm basing it off of precedent (which is usually how GMs operate) so see the Staal trade to DET and I think you can see that it comports with this offer.
Can you list some names of top 6-top 9 ELC centers that teams are willing to move? That NYR will be able to afford in the next couple of years? I think NYR are going to extend Strome in any event.
I think you're 100% right when you stated above that players that have high salaries with term currently in the league are players NYR should avoid, because it creates a cap crisis in the near future and possibly down the road, too. But I think getting veterans on expiring contracts is sending a message to the players in the locker room that you are are investing them and want to create a winning culture. I think so long as you keep this year's first rounder and one of the second rounders, you can spend some of the assets you've accumulated (that's the point of rebuilding and accumulating assets in the first place!).
And lastly, it's possible (but I'll admit unlikely) that when you bring in some older veterans that can still play (like a Giordano or a Pavelski) that they may believe that signing with NYR on cheaper 1 year deals next year could be their best chance to win a cup, so bringing them in and giving them every opportunity to "drink the cool-aid" might give you another year of them.
I understand that giving up assets for rentals is risky, but NYR have put themselves in a position to take risks; otherwise you end up like the Kings with a bunch of good prospects that will depreciate in the AHL because there are log jams across the roster.

I think that's very fair, but if they are thinking about making a push and/or trying to build a winning culture, maybe bringing in Giordano would be helpful to those younger players? I feel like this would be the type of guy that can help in more ways than on the ice.

I think some of these teams already have deals in place with Seattle, so I would not be surprised if some players you did not mention end up being picks for some teams (NYI best example). Also would not be surprised if Seattle just takes a cheap contract from teams that are offering very little (Examples include Tokarski from Buffalo, or Hanley from Dallas).

I think it actually does. Gives you a replacement for Barrie for a PMD because Leafs likely will not be able to afford him. Gives you a top 9 forward who can play physically, kills penalties and still nets you some goals. It gives you a prospect that is lighting it up right now and has high potential, and another first rounder. Maybe you do not agree with Nylander's valuation and think the Canucks should sacrifice more, but it does help the leafs.

Think it is more likely that a buy out for Henrik occurs. He is 38, but still has something left in him for a cup. And there are playoff contending teams with potential vacancies where he can play a substantial amount of games this coming offseason.
I think this is most likely what NYR's roster will look like as a result: <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/1808739">https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/1808739</a>
I know you do not love the Strome contract but unless they find a bona fide 2C as an alternative, I predict Gorton keeps him.

I just do not understand why you'd want to trade for Henrik when retaining the player you are trying to dump + the AAV of signing Henrik after a NYR buyout will likely come out to less than or equal to trading Henrik with the current $8.5 million cap hit and signing someone else to replace whoever you sent over in the trade. In other words, I think they are better off not trading for Henrik and simply waiting to sign him when he becomes a free agent.

NYR likely does not want to take on Eriksson's high cap hit for another two more years. But good news! You can still sign Henrik this coming offseason if and when NYR buy him out. I think VAN is one of the likely destinations for Henrik if that happens.
If it's Baertschi instead of Eriksson then it's more intriguing. But I do not see any team willing to trade for Henrik when NYR has little leverage with the current carousel between Henrik, Igor and Georgiev.

Could certainly see Strome's contract have less AAV and it is highly likely he will not have a full NMC; I'd venture to say his trading rights would be much narrower. But after what he has done this season he either wants a long term deal or would rather just go to arbitration and sign a 1-year deal and then walk into UFA the following offseason. I think NYR will prefer to get him to a deal that they are comfortable with and retain 5 of their top 6 forwards.

-Deangelo developed in Sarnia playing the left side, so I think he is more than capable than playing on that side. He should work well with Trouba, who could focus on being a shutdown defenseman.
-I think they are waiting for K'Andre Miller to come up, who may need another season before coming up. Hajek has apparently improved during camp, and Rykov is still an option as well. Management probably feels like they have the LHD already in their organization; they just need to develop. NYR will have about $20 million open up with the decreases on the Shattenkirk and Henrik buyouts, and the dissolution of the Smith and Staal contracts. After that, they will have more flexibility to spend.
-And as stated above, I am only predicting what I think will happen; these are not personal preferences.
