OTT declines, not trading a 1st for hartman

Edmonton instantly matches

Edmonton will thank you lmao.

Minnesota isn't trading their 1c on cheap contract. Nor taking back capdump of 3mil or more than Hartman of bottom line winger. Minnesota isn't trading Hartman until they are out @ deadline even then they aren't taking on cap dump. Nor is Minnesota adding any picks

I like Hartman but calling him our 1C is disingenuous, Ek is clearly our best center. Hartman is at best a 2C on a legitimate contender anyways, but ideally he's your 3C. I agree that this trade doesn't make sense for us though, we can't take on Joseph's cap hit.

Tough to trade away a first with Joseph.. I think he had a down year and will bounce back next season. Yes his cap hit is high for a 3rd liner, but he won the cup, works real hard and is so fast. I'd keep him, because we can only see that a good 3rd lines makes the difference in the playoffs.

For that Bouchard offer sheet, I'm sorry, but he's probably gonna get traded or signed to a bridge deal around the 4 mil aav at least. I also think OTT's defence is the last of our problems going in next season.

It is that guy that’s had so many accounts in the last year and a half.

He plays with kaprizov, so by default he's
