Columbus declines. We’d rather use the 2020 1st on a center(Matt Duchene) then on a wing that we don’t need. Anyways if Dechene resigns in Columbus Ottawa gets our 2020 1st and we need centers and are very deep on the wings especially the right side. Also Voracek probably wouldn’t want to come back to Columbus, so maybe a 3 way where he goes to Edmonton and we get a prospect and a 1st or something.

First off- NO to Risto in any capacity.
Second- trading Konecny for him?!
I'd set myself on fire if they made this trade.

Voracek wouldn't have a choice since he doesn't have a NTC, but I see your point. I was just picking a team with a younger D-man, and knowing Columbus is gonna lose those UFA's (Bob, Panarin) I figured they'd have some cap space to take Jake.

Buffalo deal is bad. Risto is garbage defensively.

I completely forgot about Phil Myers. I keep hearing Spurgeon's name, so maybe that's something Chuck wants to do because he had him in Minny
