Take out the first and the Devils would do it

I don't know - those are two guys that can only get it done on power play.

Risto alone is worth a 3rd with P.K included.

Subban>Risto

True but we need help on the PP so maybe

not with that contract.

Our 2015-19 1st picks have played a total of 8 games together.
And Holtz, Foote on their way.

After July 28, he is making about 1/3 of Risto.
And we need his AAV to stay above cap floor.

Contracts don't matter when both teams need to reach the cap floor

good to know.

so if I took P.K out of the deal would you accept or decline? Probably not but I will say Olofsson ended the season great at 5v5. Granato really turned his game around. He may not be a 1 dimensional player anymore

I am the last guy you'd get to agree to any trade with Risto.
I don't think he helps us.

NJD is building around possession. And they need defensive d-men who can break the puck out of their own zone.
Plus they are on record saying they aren't buying rentals.
And are just as likely to re-sign Subban as they are to deal him.

Still no

Devils aren't trading the 4th pick to the Sabres unless Dahlin is coming back (which won't happen)
