That’s essentially Danault + a 2nd for Gourde, so absolutely not.

no chance edmonton does that trade. typically when teams such as tampa need to clear cap they don’t get full price for their players. even then I don’t see edmonton giving up their top prospect and and 1st for palat

So why do you get a 10 OA pick (Bouchard) and a 19OA pick for an expensive player you HAVE to get rid of on an expiring contract? I’d give you a 3rd rounder, and if you don’t like it then try and send him somewhere else.

Also you’re $2M over the $81.5M salary cap as it is. It’s not going up next year.

It’s also highly unlikely Larson leaves Edmonton.

Edmonton will pay Larson his 4x4 contract and he will be Broberg’s partner in a year.

This might be the worst trade I've seen with Edmonton yet. The ceiling for Palat this year is likely a 2nd and B prospect, he's a good player but it's an expiring contract and Tampa has to move cap which will limit his return. In no world is Edmonton giving a 1st and Bouchard for him, you won't even fetch 1 of those assets.
