$2m retention, a 1st, and a 2nd -- and NSH gets nothing in return. Hard pass.

avs arent using a 1st to trade Johnson, that makes no sense

If EDM roll with Smith and Stalock, I could see that move happening. Might need to retain a bit more just to make sure they arent over the cap, but that return seems good to me.
Lyubushkin and Larsson probably get 4ths, maybe 5ths at the deadline, so thats good.
Nashville have $11M in cap right now and will have even more next summer. Sure they need to pay Forsberg, Ekholm and Kunin, among others, but they will have over $30M in cap space. They arent in a position to be moving out picks like that.
Florida is a different story. Depending on what happens with Barkov, they may need some extra cap space. Bob is the obvious one, but he has a NMC, so he needs to sign off on the trade. Might be something they need to do.
Finally, Colorado is probably better off buying out Johnson for $2M for 2 years rather than moving a 1st rounder out. If they do trade him, I dont think it would cost that much.

NASHVILLE IS NOT GIVING A 1st TO GET RID OF JOHANSEN OR DUCHENE!!!!!!!!! We have over 10 million in cap right now and are not using it. Why do we need more space
