Killorn will be dealt , Paquette as well like mentioned, Coburn small cap will be another one who will most likely get the boot. If the CBO does happen well that would be more cap space with the CBO likely used on Gourde or Johnson. I know Kucherov NMC doesn’t kick in just yet but no way he will go some where it is an entertaining thought but it is just something that wouldn’t Happen also hard to see Point going anywhere even though he could
Get a nice haul

Your best bet is probably to ask Gourde if he would be happy to waive for a chance to play a more prominent role on another team. 4th line minutes this season couldn't have been fun for him.

Colorado could be a potential trade partner, but I think they'd only be interested in Killorn or Palat for the simple reason that their term is much more manageable (3 and 2 years left respectively). Avs don't want to over-extend themselves given that Mackinnon will be up for renewal in 2023).

both have played 14 minutes per night, they would have more points if they played more minutes. McDonagh point production is off because he paired up with Cernak

Exactly so maybe they need new scenery to get those minutes they can play cause when you have Stamkos Kuch Point Cirelli now upfront Johnson won’t get those minutes so him or Gourde will most likely get the boot it’s unfortunate but you can’t move the cornerstone pieces to this team it wouldn’t be good at all
