Chinakhov, Tarasov, Meyer, and someone like Gaunce or Olivier to Cleveland.

Nyquist to a team that can use him. (I picked Nashville because they're my #2 team and I do believe the Preds could use him. The 4th is for amusing irony - Toronto's 2022 4th was what the Jackets sent to get Matthieu Olivier.)

Sign Laine. And Bemstrom. And Blankenburg. If there's to be agony, decide on where Blankenburg is go to - scratched, scratch someone else, or sent to Cleveland or whatever.

AND WE'RE DONE.

We don't *need* to do more than that. A Gaudreau-Laine pairing doesn't NEED a star center; it just needs someone who can handle the dirty work. That's Jenner, and he proved it with Laine-Voracek last year. And this way we keep ALL the kids, pick the best among 'em, and be competitive this year and a major player for many many more years to come.

Don't overthink this, folks. It's not that complicated.
