OTT declines, not enough for Chych

- Most likely Flyers doesn't have -24 CBJ pick, but -25 instead. And that's not enough to acquire Kaliyev and Turcotte.
- Rags deal is fine i guess, could maybe do it with just one 6th, Leafs doesn't have the capspace to acquire Ristolainen without dumping some contract in exchange.
- For Chychrun, that's not enough, would require atleast a 1st or A prospect. which Grans is not at the moment.
- Don't know if we need Peeke, otherwise trade is okay.
- That's nowhere near the return Briere would accept for taking Campbell AND giving up Walker.
- Does STL need to dump Kapanen? 3rd for taking him is fine. Same for Martinez.
- Krebs deal could be okay for both, don't know if Briere is willing to trade a first though.

Probably all true.

As far as LA, Seeler (at current value) is probably close to Kaliyev or Turcotte (neither going anywhere) depending on how badly LA want to do this year in playoffs, and CBS 2nd (in 24 or 25) is very close to 1st round.
Agree on Leafs and Risto, and other than Samsonov, they have no dumpable contracts that help this deal, and I cant see Flyers retaining for 3-4 yrs
Peeke is surplus to CBS really and just dumping a 2.75mil contract, maybe a stay at home guy Philly could reclaim
STL is playing well right now and in playoff picture, this is all about them dumping a 3mil cap hit for another move, same with Martinez, (who has a NTC), and really just examples of using cap space to take dumps.
Krebs is really a gamble (as is Turcotte trade) to address Philly weakness at Center with some young guys with upside.

A 27-year-old Russian goalie who has never played a professional hockey game in North America is of no interest to the Kings. Seeler for Kaliyev is a reasonable idea, though, if in fact Kaliyev is on the market now that the coach has changed.

Agree on Fedotov, if he ever comes to NA. But Kaliyev (who seems to have stalled abit and fallen out of favour) or Turcotte (injuries and stagnant in his pro career) for Seeler seems about right with the high in the round 2nd (2024 or 2025) being about right for the other.

Turcotte's stagnation seems to be breaking up with the season he's had in the AHL and the few games he's appeared in for the Kings. I think that Los Angeles is willing to be quite patient with him, just as the Kings were with Byfield, and that hasn't turned out too badly -- compare Kakko and LaFreniere.
