I wouldnt trade sergachev alone for that package

Congrats you have the most lob sided trade I have seen in a long time. I guessing you are not a Tampa fan.

Canucks decline. Buchnevich's cap hit is too high. MacEwen is a cheap replacement for Virtanen. Van can't trade them both.

Stamkos is still good tho.

This is just bad on so many fronts...from the trades to the free agent signings (Matt Martin for $3.5M AAV?)

I politely disagree with you. Buch is just a shade over 3 which is more than Virtanen will make however he is a legit top 6 right winger which would allow them to pass on signing Toffoli. I think it would be very beneficial to have a Russian on the roster to help Podkolzin’s transition to the NHL. I like Zack a lot and think he is a perfect 4th liner but Andersson is still on his ELC and has a higher ceiling in my opinion. I haven’t watched him play since his world j’s day and obviously has struggled in New York so my take might be wrong.. but he was a good two way center for Sweden and I think he would be a good fit on the 3rd line rotation taking draws with Gaudette and bringing a better defensive presence. Also his past connection with Pettersson might help him recover his game. Just my thoughts and think that would be a nice trade for Van

Valid argument if Buch is in fact a top 6 winger. I like the part about Pod as well. I think you may have convinced me. Well done
