-I don't know if Carolina is thinking about moving Ethan Bear, but I *do* know you're underpaying him by $900K based on what his QO is.

-Chicago probably accepts without sending *anything* back. That's the cost of moving Mrazek; buy him out if you don't like it.

-I can't see Philadelphia giving up a solid 25 year old winger on a decent deal for 2 pending UFAs and an okay prospect in Steeves. It's not even like this deal would save them cap space or anything - I just don't know why they'd say yes.

-I think a longshot prospect and a 3rd is okay value for a career backup goalie but it feels like Anaheim has a higher value on Stolarz than that - I could see this going either way but Anaheim probably wants a better prospect out of the deal.

-Muzzin doesn't waive his NTC, plus the Kings don't need his decline years on a very up-and-coming young team. Plus you're not getting Alex Iafallo even if the Kings *did* decide they wanted Muzzin.

As soon as Muzzin is included in any trade ......it just blows apart the whole post.

CAR very likely moves him and before his QO is due so they don't have to go to arb w/ him. He's a good player but ran into tough luck and probably wasn't managed in the best manner after covid/injuries. Very likely to be moved for a 3rdish type pick
