Next year free agency frenzy

Klingburg isn’t taking another 1 year deal for even less money to play on the 3rd pair

That Habs 2nd in 2023 is most likely between 33-38 OA. That's a steep price for Comtois. 1 year cap dump would be worth the 2nd in 2024, maybe

Knuxles really wants Comtois, apparently. He is the Ducks most developed, and probably best young LW after we let Steel and Minalo walk, and our prospect pool is the shallowest at left wing, the only way we move him out is if he had a down year, or we had a killer young left wing moving in from another deal.

Trouba has a NMC, and I doubt anaheim would pay that much to take on the final years of that contract. He plays a very physical game and will be entering his year 30 season. The last few years of that contract are going to be dicey on if he can live up to his cap hit, let alone worth giving up two 2nds for.

Perry gets resigned for a day only to come back and retire a Duck

Dostal is the next goalie, and he will have to compete for Stolarz with the spot. Team has no problem inking a one or two year extension with Stolarz to ensure we don't rush Dostal, Erikson Ek, or Clang's development.

Rangers accept and personally drive Trouba to Anaheim.
