Detroit accepts, no take backs.

Brodin isn't waiving his NMC, For a team that's heading for the toilet. Washington is headed towards the abyss. They need to rebuild sooner rather than later.

Detroit accepts, But it's extremely doubtful that Zuccarello waives for Detroit.

I don't see how, in it's current state, either team accepts a Kuznetsov-Brodin swap. In this ACGM scenario, it does seem that Minnesota needs a center, but I would be surprised if Minnesota would take on more money in Kuzy while also leaving a huge hole at LD (which asking Hagg to fill would be a recipe for disaster), meanwhile Washington may consider moving Kuzy but they don't need a Defenseman with Sandin, Fehervary, and Alexeyev all extended past this year or RFAs that will all need NHL time to continue developing.

Edit: also giving up Zuccarello (a guy with 67 points this year) and a 2nd for a 23 year old with 7 points this year and being quickly phased out by others in the Red Wings organization would not happen.

Goligoski has an NMC and the Isles have no use for him anyway.

Isles have no use for Goligoski.

Trading Brodin, Losing Dumba and bringing up our prized goalie prospect to play with that D-line up. yikes that is a scary thought.
