Problem you have to retain on everyone, The Devils one needs retain and we will throw in Smith and upgrade the 5th to a 3rd, if you retain anywhere between 35-50%

TOR accepts

Hanifin to the Sabres isn’t gonna happen
Not going to sign him long term after giving Power the big extension (instead of a bridge deal) and giving Dahlin huge $$$
We just aren’t gonna allocate that much Cap to the defense


And it just doesn’t make sense to give up the assets it would take to get Hanifin, to just use him as a rental

leafs accept

Find a third team like Ana to run a trade through (a pick for 50% retention)

Problem is they have 4 players they should retain on for max return EL, CT, NH, NZ

Tampa Bay declines. They can't afford Dube's cap hit unless Flames retain 50%. And Tampa is going to address their blue line issues long before they add another forward.

Their blue line issues in a sentence. Sergachev and Perbix have way too many turnovers.

I think most Bolts fans thought rolling w/ Perbix and Raddysh on the right side was risky. But Sergy's play was very unexpected.

Actually Raddysh has been ok everyone makes mistakes but Raddysh has had minimal.
