Sorry, but that is brutal value headed to the Preds. There isn't a single piece there that would get them to consider trading either of those players you're asking for.

Reports are Rielly's trade value is that of a highly touted prospect and a first. Hallander is a projected middle six center. I wouldn't expect them to accept this but this with a second pair defenceman and a second round pick is not a bad deal for two guys on expiring contracts. I'm also accounting for what they valued Arviddson at.

Rielly has a lot less value to the Preds than Ekholm does, even before you start asking for retention. Middle six seems a little optimistic on Hallander to me. I think he'll be a fine bottom sixer one day, but everyone has a few guys like him in their prospect pool already. Holl doesn't do anything for NSH - they already have Ellis, Carrier, Fabbro, and Benning on the right side. Holl would be fighting with Benning for the opportunity to be the healthy scratch. Much like your expectations for Rielly, the Preds would expect a 1st+ for each of Ekholm and Forsberg. I'm afraid you're not offering anything NSH would want.

You make good points. I didn't think it was too realistic anyways. I've seen that Ekholm and the Preds could reach an extension this offseason so I don't think they would trade him. Forsberg is clearly unhappy and that team has no direction, they just sold low on a top 6 winger but apparently are still looking to add, so while I wouldn't predict they trade Forsberg, its not unrealistic to say the Leafs could push for him. But both of them together I don't think they would do. This was more an experiment to see how the team could improve with a Rielly trade, and realistically, they probably wouldn't unless it was a Hamilton deal, which isn't happening.
