pass on murphy

if you want to dump murphy send him to columbus. He's from there and they need defense

If the cost to dump mantha is moving back from ~12 to ~ 42 caps will just buy him out

Yeah I wrote in the description that I didn't realize where WAS was in the standings. What about CHI 2nd? Any better or still just to much?

probably still too much. Given it cost Toronto 13 spots to dump Mrazek, who had more term than Mantha, I would expect a more plausible trade to be something like Mantha+WSH 1st for TBL's 1st (if they are out in the first round), otherwise I think Washington would balk at those types of trades. Even dropping from 10-12ish to 25ish seems like something Washington is unlikely to consider since they could use that 10-12 pick to get a better forward and possibly send off Mantha in the process.
