-Too much for Chych. Pull out Olofsson because I don't think his age/contract fits Arizona's timeline anyways - if you feel the need to move him you'll get better value from a team that's closer to contention than the Coyotes. Ostlund/1st/Jokiharju seems like a good starting point, maybe Arizona asks for another 2nd or B-tier prospect, but if you want Chych I think this could get him.
-Too early for the Wild to give up on Marco Rossi. Not sure why they didn't give him more NHL ice time, but getting him back to the AHL will let him develop a little more. Krebs is one year closer to RFA, is more of a winger than a center, and has been just as unproductive as Rossi at the NHL level this year, so I think Minnesota would pass on this deal.
-Crouse just extended for 5 years in Arizona. You realize how hard it is (and will continue to be) for Arizona to attract UFAs already, right? It's gonna get that much harder if they ship out a guy 20 games into his 5 year deal - because now not only are they a team playing in a 5,000 cap college arena, they're a team playing in a 5,000 cap college arena that trades guys 2 months into a 5 year deal. Mittelstadt is only a year younger and nowhere near as productive as Crouse, to boot, and the prospect and pick aren't enough to get this over the finish line in my eyes.
