The team that is first place in the nhl doesn’t need to make over 25% of their roster.

Ducks aren’t retaining 50% of Gudbranson’s contract to only get a 6th round pick. Would rather keep him.

NYR decline, same for NJ
Thornton isn't needed
Nordstrom and Lindholm stay in BOS for depth.
Gudbranson is injured, most importantly, he's a pylon
Whatever it's a '20 4th or '24 7th, just move Moore


Also, they're closer to make zero trade than this

Zero chance of Boston getting both Kreider and Palmieri, Rangers want a 2020 1st for Kreider and that's pretty much scraps for Palms.

Hey 47...probably best to focus more on DMan depth OR pursue just Palmieri with a diff package?
