would be pretty neat

AA worth more than Armia & a 1st

No, not a first Andrew shaw had just as many points in 20 fewer games and got traded for 2 2nd rounders

You were pretty realistic until the Wings trade. They decline that quick.

AA trade doesn’t make sense since he would be giving a major raise next year so with all
The youngsters that will command a raise in the next few year, danault, domi and gallagher, petry all Need new contracts next season or the one after. We have ylonen coming on the right side as well as suzuki that could play right side or center. Armia is more likely to stay at good contract is versatile player

Tatar needing new deal same time as Danault , Gallagher ,Petry , Kotkanemi , Poehlng , Lehkonen and Armia .
AA would an RFA unlike Tatar and need a deal 1 year earlier when we only have Domi , Juulsen and Mete to worry about with 18m
if we knew we had AA we'd just pay Seattle to take Alzner giving us 22.5 m for AA , Domi ,Mete and juulsen .

Petry wont be returning , if he does then it means Weber's gonna be on the move as he'll be at 18 over 6 years and easier to move but longterm keeping him over Petry means better developed prospects as Weber takes pride in helping the Josi's , Ellis's , Ekholm's , Jones's ,ext that he's helped adjust to life at the NHL level just like he did with Mete here

Either way getting AA actually helps us in the end as it gives us an RFA looking for Tatar money rather then Tatar looking for a raise .
we get 4 years younger without losing any speed .
