Potential Summer 2024 Ins and Outs

Colton obviously has a NTC but he fits more of the profile of what I could see NYI bring in. A lot of these guys are left handed, centers, and will have 2+ years at an affordable price.

Girard has been linked to NYI for a long time. Is this likely? No. Honestly close to 5%, but again, COL is tight to cap and will need to move someone. Will it be Girard or Colton? Probably not, but these are just ideas I could see Lou persuing

Coleman: Older, career year, and the prime time to overpay. Honestly the perfect fit. As well, he is a lefty, with term and would fit well with Barzal and Horvat. Solid defensively. If the price did not take a first (lets say Pageau + Wahlstrom + 2nd rounder (43 OVR or so) id do it. Will that be it? Doubt it.

Kuzmenko: His value has plummeted, and trading for him may be a good idea. I think its very possible to see him go for like a 3rd + Wahlstrom for 1.5 mil retention. Could also see a world where he goes for a second. All a guessing game but I just don't think his value is high. Never did with Vancouver and don't now

Mangiapagne: I have wanted him for a while but he hasn't been moved. Similar to Kuzy but likely a bit more?

Just so Lou. Not much needs to be said

Batherson is much more of a reach, but if they look to make real changes, I could see it. Close to 3% chance he gets moved id say

Brannstrom seems more likely to be sent out, and I could see as a throw in or a mid pick

Pinto would be interesting. he's been linked to NY a lot, and rightfully so, but it feels less likely with Norris' inability to stay healthy. However for a top 15 pick, its possible.

Chychrun's asking price appears to be a 1st + other piece, so a better first than they'd get elsewhere (top 15), young defenseman in Bolduc and 2nd or 3rd rounder seems more fair. Or Dufour/Maggio instead. Or even a deal with Pageau if they have interest
