None of these are good or realistic??
The Hawks should not give up Saad for Skinner. If the Hawks only care about getting a top 6 offensive player on a contract that expires 2018-19, then they would have better off keeping Panarin. And Saad technically has a higher defensive impact statistically than Faulk and Carolina doesn't want/need Murphy lbr. If Skinner doesn't work out, it'd be super hard to trade him at the TDL because of his NMC. I like Skinner a lot but he's not great defensively and Faulk is just so-so there, so you've made the team weaker defensively with this trade, though probably better offensively.
If the Hawks could get Pacioretty for that deal (they couldn't), why wouldn't they just keep him and Saad as their 1-2 LW for the season instead of going for Skinner? Patches is older but he's cheaper and could be flipped more easily as he has no NMC.
If Colorado would give up Barrie for Patches, why wouldn't Montreal just do that deal themselves since they need defensemen just as much as they need centers?
Seabrook wouldn't waive his NMC to Buffalo.
