Nice, a new idea! As you say it's a bit old discussing Tatar, Zadorov to NJ, etc so it's nice with some freshness.
I've been against acquiring a rental like Saad for a while, mainly because Chicago fans keep insisting on a 1st+ for him and I'm not too keen on trading a 1st for a rental.
That said, having watched many playoff games the last week I've kinda come to appreciate his type of player a bit more. I'm also not too keen on the UFA's due to age primarily. Acquiring Saad and extending him at a reasonable caphit might be a solid solution if we can get him for a reasonable return. He has a $6m caphit so the market should be fairly limited for him, and so I figure we'd have a good chance at doing just that.
We also have a bit of a log-jam on the 3rd line and it might make sense to move Compher if we're going to upgrade. The downside of that though is that we're left betting on Jost at 3C and he's yet to really take that job and run with it. Maybe we could resign Namestnikov as 3C instead? There's capspace for it after all, but I guess that Jost's low caphit would be better in 2021/22.
