Wishful Thinking

Very unlikely Klingberg waives for Winnipeg.

There's a lot wrong here, but for starters, you can only retain 3 salaries at a time.

While Gibson is still a great goalie, no one's giving us that package due to his stats.

Provorovs going to cost more than a 1st and two NCAA guys.

Silf and Lundestrom need to not be on the same line. Lund should be with Vatrano and Comtois

Calgary is in go for it, they're not going to trade Mangipane, and definitely not for that.

Ottowa' not in a position to trade their first, and that's frankly wasting Henrique as well, as he's worth a 1st this year with significant retention due to the extra year, no need to take zaitsev back in that.

You guys are first in the central, why do you think you WOULD be on his 10 team list? I know the list typically means CA and CA teams, but it's more than likely that he is locking out other bottom feeders like Chicago, Montreal, Arizona, Phillidelphia, Columbus, etc.

Well, almost everyone who is anyone has Winnipeg on their list. Plus he requested a trade when he was on Dallas last year with Bowness as the coach, so there may be hard feelings.

The trade request was due to contract negotiations with the front office going cold, Kling was looking for a long term security with his new contract and Dallas wasn't hitting the numbers he expected. Klingberg would likely relish the chance to be on a team that knocks Dallas off in the post season.
