let's not

Chicago is not trading Reese Johnson and he won't be a good fit for the Canucks.
Eriksson Ek is untouchable and Minny is not available.
Arizona would rather keep Bjugstad and trade him.

I think I was the first person to start posting JEK trades awhile back (even though I know he's likely unavailable), so I am obviously a big fan of his. With that said, IF he was available this offer is from from what it would take to acquire him.

Wild counter with Marat Khusnutdinov, Adam Beckman, Jujhar Khaira, Kyle Masters, a 1st and a 2nd for Elias Pettersson (the center)

Wild accept easily

Canucks decline

No they don't, that's more than fair value

Canucks pass. They are a good hockey team trying to win a cup. Pettersson is a good hockey player. Canucks will keep him as it helps them achieve their goal of winning the cup

Canucks accept easily

Hawks aren't giving up a 2nd

Wild decline easily. You are giving a late 1st, a few meh prospects and some spare parts nobody wants. For a premium 2C. Give your head a shake.

There is zero reason for CHI to give up a 2nd on anything other than using it to draft a player or to trade up in the draft.

Excuse me!?! Are you calling elite first round defenseman Filip Johansson a meh prospect or spare parts nobody wants? I just want to make sure which side of the **** heap he's officially on. Clearly nobody wants him, but is he still technically a prospect?
