Équipe: 2022-23 Sharks de San Jose

Date de création initiale: 22 mai 2022

Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

No one is going to waive their NTC...Vlasic and Mrazek might to DAL, but I can't see Seguin waiving for SJ. But if that problem wasn't there, I think this is a good three-way trade:

Toronto saves 1.6 in cap and gets a...commodious defenseman at the cost of a young guy with upside who they've apparently soured on (as he's not getting enough ice time). Dallas takes on a bit more cap over the next two years, saves cap over the next two years, and then is off with nothing in year five. They also cut loose a guy who has overstayed his welcome. San Jose gets younger on D and does take on a worse contract, but also gets rid of a guy that everyone has just soured on. The third-for-Dahlen I see as a fair swap; he's not getting a fair shake in San Jose.

Reasons for not doing the trade: Toronto might prefer paying a higher price to trade Mrazek's entire contract, and maybe they're just being very patient with Sandin. For Dallas, Seguin is a better player and (slightly) better value than Vlasic; he's also much younger. For San Jose, Seguin might rock a fragile boat, and his contract is a year longer; losing Simek makes the Sharks much softer on D unless Knyzhov, who was sidelined for the year with injury, makes a full recovery.
