The Habs will take Timmins for a 6th

Done…

Flames aren't trading their 1C for a 10M winger

You don’t think he would be an upgrade to a struggling offence? He’d be a great addition to Huberdeau…

You think a team can contend with Kadri as their 1st line center?

The Flames were still one of the best 5v5 teams in the league this year, they just got let down by suboptimal goaltending and bad luck (ie leading the league in posts hit, etc)

GF/60 - 8th
GA/60 - 18th
SF/60 - 2nd
SA/60 - 3rd
CF/60 - 2nd
CA/60 - 2nd
xGF/60 - 7th
xGA/60 - 8th

Marner would help the offense sure, but not at the cost of Lindholm. Also he really wouldn't be a good fit with Huberdeau. Neither of them likes shooting the puck

Hawks obviously decline.

That is an absolute steal for Seattle imo. Liljegren still has a high ceiling and is already pretty reliable at only 23, He's not a guy to trade if you're retooling. I'd probably put Borgen in that trade and try and get a 1st instead of the 2nd and 3rd

What makes it work?

Murray and the Boston '23 1st to Hawks for Hawks '23 3rd. Murray is the definition of a pure cap dump, and Hawks don't make any deal for him that doesn't include the '23 Boston 1st.
