Decent idea. I would structure it differently though.
Bob with retention and (lesser prospect than Noel) for Koskinen and Neal with retention. FLA will still need a goalie, and EDM won't want two guys in the overpay boat. Koskinen's value is more 0 than negative, but Bob's retention (about 500k) would cost the prospect downgrade. Ownership might be against retention, but that's probably the only way that contract gets moved.
For the sake of this thread, I ignored all movement and trade clauses.
Why the Chiasson payment? He remains a viable bottom 6 option for most teams, and anyone not in a cap lock might be interested in what he offers. You shouldn't have to pay to move him.
