All three moves are entirely reasonable. I'd wish you good luck, but you're a Caniac, so I'll wait for a Carolina ACGM to do that.

Oettinger is kicking ass if he gets that much in a bridge. Sorokin signed 4 mil * 3 and was better. Solid to good young than been great. He really should be looking at a bridge around 3 mil. But seems like he's owned the negotiation

Isn’t the buy out period passed? If so, you better be ready to include at least a 3rd round pick to get rid of Faksa.

Who says Lundqvist can't play on the left side paired with Schneider?

personally not a fan of ditching nils. and NYR have no other option but to move trouba. Its basically impossible cap wise to sign miller and laf with him still here. unless cap goes up a substantial amount.

No, Chytil & Kakko are caps we'd move first. Trouba & Kreider After 24 season only. Even then!? Probably Lindgren after 24 season.

What’s the point of having someone of his potential glued to the third pair? They drafted him 4 years ago, they’re gonna have to do something with him besides stick him in the AHL

He is still young, so what's wrong with him getting 3rd pair minutes for a year or two? Nothing.

I wouldn't trade Nils for Dellandrea if I was GM. Two reasons. DAL needs Nils more than NYR needs Dellandrea. Second reason, Nils have higher potentials ceiling than Dellandrea.

Basically it is a momentum 22. You won't trade your other center prospects. And NYR won't trade Nils for Dellandrea. Like a dog chasing his own tale.
