SEA isn't going to give him the $13million he's going to ask for

Problem is we’d have to do this pre deadline because if it was post deadline teams would essentially be trading for the right to negotiate with him before free agency, and I doubt it would get that return.

So Boston is trading arguably their best player before their last playoff run with Bergeron and krejci?

The likelihood of them trading Pasta this year even if they got to the point of no return with contract are less than your chances of winning the lottery.

But hypothetically if they did and they did not address the center position long term with it, it would be criminal.

I’d expect more like Shane Wright in the return. Or another team in the hunt with a young C. Minny and Rossi for example. Along with a couple 1sts and a D prospect. Then use a couple 1sts to bring in a big ticket player to replace Pasta.

Again all hypothetical as they are not going to move him. Ride or die.
