No chance that Boston would do that deal.
That's far too much for Erik Karlsson. Not only are they giving up one of the best young defensive defensemen (Carlo), they are giving up two stud prospects (Bjork and DeBrusk) and then two more top prospects (1st round picks) and then the established top-nine player in Ryan Spooner.
Even if we consider this "fair", what's to stop Boston from just signing Erik Karlsson? Essentially Boston is trading two A+ prospects (Bjork and DeBrusk), a stud young defensive defensemen (Carlo), two B+/A- prospects ((2) First round picks), and established top-nine forward Ryan Spooner for negotiation rights to Erik Karlsson.
Boston should just go after Oliver Ekman-Larsson, John Carlson, Ryan McDonagh, Mike Green, Drew Doughty, Calvin deHaan, etc. rather than giving up a ton for Erik Karlsson, who btw doesn't even guarantee them a cup.
