Wow Philly really cleans up in this one

Buffalo has no interest in Voracek for one. Konecny would move the needle a little better.

First of all none of these trades work second of all you dont know how 3 team trades work

Umm....this is unnecessarily aggressive? Care to add anything constructive or explain further?

Buffalo and pittsburgh never traded anything to each other in three team trades ever team trades something to each other.
To get Eichel you have to pay alot more then Frost and Voracek, Voracek Does nothing for Buffalo they dont need him that first is basically gonna be outside the top 10 Frost is the only decent piece in this trade
Philadelphia gets a defenseman they dont need, and trades Couturier who is gonna be there number 1 Centerman no deal both sides

I would say you are off by a lot here as I don't think you consider what each team actually requires; Buffalo is case an point:
Buffalo requires the following:
- Young NHL ready players (forward, defender & Tender)
- Prospects
- Draft Picks

Minnesota doesn't currently have any real requirements as they are in a win now situation; if they require anything it would be cap space so prospects and picks in return for Dumba or an depth defender. So this feels like it should have been a Dumba to Philadelphia for picks and maybe Myers,

The question becomes how much do they get of what they require as I would assume that three Young NHL ready players are min requirement with picks or prospects.

Minnesota doesn't currently have any real requirements as they are in a win now situation; if they require anything it would be cap space so prospects and picks in return for Dumba or an depth defender. So this feels like it should have been a Dumba to Philadelphia for picks and maybe Myers, Philippe. This would then force Philadelphia to trade more pieces to free up cap space themselves; if they are considering Jack also.

So here is how I think the trade would work:

Buffalo receives:
Konecny, Travis
Lindblom, Oskar
Myers, Philippe
Draft Picks and/or Prospects

Philadelphia receives as above:
Dumba, Matt
Eichel, Jack

Minnesota receives:
Draft picks ( 1st & 3rd or 4th?)

dumba will be unprotected for the draft so no reason to make this trade

Regarding BUF, that's fair. That's the side of this equation I struggled with most. I'd agree that it needs workshopping for BUF to consider it, but Frost is NHL ready and I included 2 1sts and a 2nd. Voracek is not worth his contract, but he's still very productive and immediately plays topline minutes for BUF. I'm not hung up on what I proposed here, since I'd agree that package to BUF ultimately gets beat by competing offers. I just wanted to explore Couturier going to MIN, while also playing around with the Eichel sweepstakes. PHI has very little incentive to move coots, unless there's major upside (blue chip D man like Seth Jones + picks, or Jack Eichel).






Issue I have with this statement is the fact that you are consider Couturier, Sean as first line center, when he is clearly being paid like a second line center in Philadelphia right now. So why would Minnesota want a second line center when 1C is a MONUMENTAL requirement for MIN right now and the foreseeable future. Which I also disagree with the foreseeable future aspect since Minnesota are a year maybe two from a complete rebuild so they will require a lot more then 2C playing 1C minutes.

You also seem to miss the fact that Minnesota needs Cap space more then anything else at the moment as they cannot acquire an 1C without Cap Space.
