TDL with WSH TOR TBL

i would want at least a second rounder for Jensen. If you cant get that then your better off trying to just resign him. He one of our best defensemen this year and can skate. The chances that 3rd round pick turn into anything is slim.

The Nyquist trade is perfect. Caps accept. Pretty equal value.

Yep, you're right. Idk why I had a 3rd.

Detroit wants a 1st for Nyquist Ken Holland has made that clear and has said he has no problem resigning him. We are also retaining salary which increases Nyquist's value. I know some people don't think salary retention is a big deal, but when a team has $37,888 it becomes a big deal. Detroit really doesn't need Burakovsky we have a few players that play a similar style.

If Washington gives Detroit a 1st for Nyquist then it doesn't matter if Burakovsky is or isn't part of the deal. But that's just an opinion!

Those are all really good points. But Burakovsky and Nyquist play almost the same style, at different points on the growth chart. So on the one hand, you need your not-real-tough skilled wing unless you can get the perfect return of a draft pick. On the other hand, you have several developing, and don't need one.

Burakovsky has one more career goal than some guy from his draft class named Mantha, who you probably haven't heard of because, as you point out, they're both just so bad and worthless, since they're outside of the top five, but if you wanted to throw him in for the Caps first, I think they'd be okay with that.
