I can’t see LA going close to that or most of these other teams

Take any two pieces out of that LA return and LA still says no.

easy pass for cbj. we are not trading our first

Even if these trades were realistic, you're talking about potentially 15 ELCs expiring at once if you were to sign all 1st and 2nd round picks. That's absurd.

PIT isn't paying you to take Zucker.

At either end of the spectrum, neither Los Angeles nor Anaheim accepts those offers.

Turcotte, Grans or Spence, and our 2022 first is about the most we should go for Chychrun; Capobianco and Galchenyuk are clutter. (We might have to add someone for cap reasons.)

Zucker holds enough value that he’d be used in a deal to get Crouse, he’s not just cap relief, plus he has 2 years so you’ll actually have a somewhat decent player next year. Also they’d probably feed him and he’d be good enough to net a good return next season
