Pretty creative, nice.

I doubt Seattle will be trading it's top 5 pick right out of the gate for anything less than a superstar. If they get a 1st from someone to take on a bad contract though they would probably do it, especially if they're trying to win now

avs arent going to lose toews.

It's not very likely the Jets move Laine for picks alone.

Did you bother reading the description

Toews isnt goign to be left exposed so that kills that trade idea

I can definitely see that happening. Tampa, in particular, would probably rather lose Johnson than Cernak, Gourde, Palat, or Cirelli.

Yeah, but then does Winnipeg do it?

Are you guys thinking the Avs protect 4F and 4D? They'd probably lose Jost or Compher... Is that better? And there's still Ryan Graves available.

It will be 7-3-1....the assumption is that Johnson will waive his NMC, as no way Sakic trades for and extended Toews playing with him Makar on the top pair to leave him exposed. They had a plan and its assumed that conversion or they have sense he will waive is happening.

Graves will be left exposed. Probably will be a crap of Compher Donskoi and Graves to pick from

I guess I should have said picks and a bunch of blech.

Oh, you're thinking the Jets would get Tampa's pick instead of Seattle's? Yeah, the Jets probably don't take that. But the Kraken could trade their own and keep the Lightning's, so they'd at least have one first-round pick.
