Nashville’s d men aren’t the problem, they’re cheap and solid af. They gonna move a forward.

IMO a getting close to fair but not acceptable return

I dont thin Nashville could realistically do a rebuild. Most of their forwards are overpaid which means no ones gonna want them, but their D isn't the problem because it is very good. They are very similar to Minnesota too good for a rebuild, but not good enough to win the cup

I think you need to throw a prospect in gor 2 years at that cap hit ekholm is amazing, not to mention the extension potential. He could be a key part to stabilizing the team during a rebuild and supporting a young defense, i think they want the pick and solid prospect throw Miller in there.

Seems light

I don't know about that. Turris and Bonino are probably the only over paid forwards on nashville. I mean johansen and duchene both have 1c ability in a pinch and forsberg is a 25+ goal scorer at 6mil its not like lucic or okposo here' they have mostly reasonable contracts. That being said thier d is where thier real value is so if they're rebuilding they'll have to sell some of it. They could trade some d abd forwards for picks and prospects, capitalize on the cap space for more picks and prospects. Its a great time to rebuild there assets have value.

Most contending teams have a 1c and are looking for a 2c and in that case they wouldn't want to pay 8M for a second line center. And just my opinion but I feel like Duchene is bad luck

Is Rykov or Hajek okay? or is a F prospect better for them?

I don't disagree abou duchene but i bet buffalo takes johansen off nashville's hands for picks. They only have staal for a year, still need a right winger anyway, i definately trade reinharts rights for johanssen, easily next years first if they wanted that instead. If eichel goes down for a stretch a guy who can fill in (unquestionably) would be great.
