Honestly have no idea if the caps would accept here. A lot of it would have to do with whether Backstrom is done for the year (and they need eller to stay to bolster the C position) or not. Jensen is absolutely not getting moved unless as a piece in a deal for someone much bigger than reimer -- a top 4d making 2.5 mil isn't something you can give away. Hagelin would make the cap work, but if he is healthy, the caps would have to add significantly as he would pretty much be a cap dump, and if he is not, they would just LTIRetire him and save the cap that way. Eller would be the odd man out, and I would do Eller for Reimer straight up. For Sharks fans, I get that everyone wants to see the young guys actually step in and get minutes, but unfortunately that is not how NHL coaches and GM's operate, and I'm pretty sure the Sharks' FO would be a lot more confident with Eller as a 3c than Bordeleau. They are also in a bind in that they have to move out either hill or reimer, which weakens their hand a lot
