I've been pretty adamant in my opposition to a Max Domi for Josh Anderson swap for a few reasons:
* I believe Anderson is the better player if he's 100%
* Most trades I see with him involve him signing for cheap and I don't see Columbus parting with him for a draft pick or Domi swap if he's signing for <3 a year
* Anderson is my favorite player lol (I already lost my favorite NFL player, Stefon Diggs off my team this year. I really don't wanna lose my favorite NHL player off my team either)

This one however intrigued me because it created quite a but of cap space and moved expendable players on the team.

From CBJ's side:
* Domi fills the 2C need
* Moving Jenner + Nuti creates 6.5 in cap space at only the cost of a 4th liner and a guy who's stuck as the 6/7 D man on this team
* Getting back a 2nd helps with the lack of one this year from the mistake of a Dzingel trade

From Montreal's side:
*Idk, I got the idea from another guy making a Montreal team. I don't hate it for them, but I don’t think it's super helpful (mainly doing this cause I liked the idea for CBJ)

Based the Domi contract off of some of the ones I've seen on here, let me know if it's off.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
I am NOT putting Dubinsky on LTIR because as I currently understand it, he cannot be placed on it until the season begins. As far as I know after doing some research, unless a player was on LTIR the previous season, they must enter the year on the roster/IR with their cap hit counting against the team until the league clears the team to move them to LTIR. Unfortunately, this means Columbus must buyout Wennberg/Not sign any FAs due to that 5.85 being on the books at season's start. I'm not 100% on this rule, but that's how I understand it right now, so I'm accounting for it.

As far as lines, they aren't super thought through, just a reasonable estimate of what I expect with a small mix of what I'd like to see. Bemstrom/Robinson is the only real difficult lineup decision I see (assuming Grigorenko does come over to play)
