Sounds just like what Arizona would like. Less real money, but still hitting the cap min.

There's no way Hertl would move for that. MIN would need to sweeten it quite a bit.

Really cant see Philly letting go of a 2nd overall pick that easily

I get you like Tarasenko, I really do but for cap purposes that will never happen

As it stands, wild are down to like 15, or 16 mil to sign kaprizov, fiala, & get a c. Where's the money to fill out the team much less add an expensive older player?

At deadline,, that would be the ask. Now, I will do
Boldly
Rask for
Tomas H

Trading away Parise makes getting Tarasenko cap neutral and then I got an extra 2M in cap relief by sending Greenway to STL.

How much has Patrick played in the last two years? There's no guarantee that his migraines will abate, but he's worth taking a chance on. Frost is the current value in that trade.

I had no clue where to target with Hertl when he only has one year left on his contract. Without a clear path to a future contract, I figured I should bid lower

100% agreed. I’ve been waiting for this guy to play and stay in the lineup, but if all it takes to get a cost-controlled, top-pair RHD is a guy with exciting potential PLUS the shell of a #2 pick, Chucky Two-Trades should drive these guys to the airport himself.

I’d prefer to see Greenway to SJ in the Hertl deal and stay away from VT.

Yeah

Yeah, it's dependent on the doctors cheating VT. But I think they have it figured out now and if he's the guy he was two years ago, he'll be amazing. It's a gamble, but I'd do it.
