Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

Move all expiring contracts and the two defensemen that everyone is clamoring to get rid of.
You add three good young players and 7 draft picks over the next two years.

My rationale for these deals:

Mcquaid to TOR - they need a tough 6/7 D for the playoffs; we get a mid-rd pick.
B. Smith to OTT - we rid ourselves of his contract and open a slot on D. Taking back Gabby's deal and stashing him on IR doesn't hurt us and gives OTT a decent vet D that will actually be in their lineup versus paying Gabby to sit on IR.
Shatty to BUF - take back two bad deals (one expiring) and add a good young wing.
Gimour and McCleod to NSH - gives them playoff depth and we add a mid rd pick plus a 7.
Zucc to CAR gets us a mid rd pick (or better) plus we can reunite Fox with Lindgren and have them play out the last 2-3 months of the season and see if they can stick next year.
Hayes to BOS gets us a late 1 and a good young wing with speed and upside if BOS bites on the deal. There are plenty of other suitors for Hayes. I also toyed with an idea of signing Hayes on Jan 1st and sending him and Kreider to EDM for Draisaitl and then signing the breadman or skinner in July to play on his wing with Chytil.

Just some ideas I was kicking around so be kind - none of us on here are freakin geniuses
