Part one - Depth trades

Olofsson is a fringe NHL'er so decent depth coverage and on league min for next year as well, his brother is also in Colorado so might be a persuader for a re-signing of Freddie to a cheap deal.

Added Hunt as it's firstly a contract off the books, secondly he gets to play closer to home in the North West, and thirdly as the pick is a year out.

Another fringe NHL'er signed for next year at league minimum so can help with depth coverage and with leading the Eagles.

Fair value for a fringe NHL'er imo.

A personal favourite of mine. Think he'd fit well as 3/4 C or RW. Great on the PK, quick, physical without being O.T.T., good in the face off circle too, and can play up the line up as well at a push.

Difficult to put a value on Sissons but with him being a lower scoring swiss army knife type (vs JTC for example) he wouldn't be cheap. Foudy joins his brother to give a couple of quick young lower line forwards for Nashville's rebuild/retool. Aamodt played with Livingstone at Mankato IIRC so should be some chemistry there for a young D pair in the future. 4th round pick completes the package.

Allison seems out of favour in Philly so I can't imagine he'd be too expensive to acquire and Seeler is in truth probably playng above his level in the D pairings in Philly which will increase his cost.

Consider MacDermid a throw in roster player, doesn't have to be included in this trade. Avs can make more use of his cap hit in Seeler plus. I get the great guy in the dressing room and deterrent argument in having him but we're talkng hockey not mutually assured destruction. He could go anywhere for anything for all I really care! If Philly has soured on Allison then Beaucage gives them a younger project RW to work on in the AHL. 3rd for Seeler seems fair even if it's in '26.
