I don't think the Flames move Bennett at all right now. He's having a miserable season. You would have to, essentially, significantly overpay to get him.

If Ceci could be moved for a pick, the Leafs may as well just do that themselves - the Kings have no interest in that trade (and that package isn't enough for Lewis and Clifford - they could get more for that).

Also, Rangers want a lot (too much, imo) for Georgiev - Johnsson is nice (as a cost-controlled ~20 goal scorer), but they want more on top of that, and Bracco isn't projecting well right now... he's now being seen as a passenger to Chris Mueller and sheltered minutes last AHL season, and not talented/compete enough of a player to offer a role in the bottom six as a solid depth scorer or a role guy. He's kind of like a younger Petan.

Interesting, thought-out take. I hesitate to fully support it when the plan is to add $7.5M in cap for next season in the resignings for Hall, Muzzin, and Dermott when the only contracts coming off the books are Barrie,Vesey, and Miller.

Also, I understand getting rid of Ceci and acquiring Miller in the Buffalo trade, but giving up Kapanen and taking back Vesey doesn't really seem worth it to me, if you're trying to ensure future success... Kapanen adds a lot of scoring touch, and plays a 200ft game.

Also, Rielly's contract is a boon to have, although he's kind of looked like a mess this year, and I think people overrate Hall. Not sure how I feel about that trade either, since the Hall sweepstakes are based on him not wanting to re-sign in New Jersey, so you may be able to low-ball the Devils.

I think if it's possible to keep Petan in the Anaheim deal, that it could be ideal to keep his cheap af contract. Guy works hard and I've liked his game so far. Would flipping Vesey to Anaheim be feasible?


Just some thoughts. I like your take overall though, it's a possible solution. Good work.

I'll ignore the trade.

While the first line would be dynamite, Kapanen only had ONE primary assist with Auston Friggin' Matthews last season... not good enough. And Johnsson's transition game through the neutral zone is below average for a Top 6 Forward. Matthews will still perform on that line, but Kapanen is not a good fit to play with Matthews. For that reason, you'd either need to pick up a winger who has a good transition game and playmaking ability, or just slide Nylander back there with Matthews again.

Now, if I were to talk about the trade, I'd say that's an overpay for Hyman from the TBL side, but even then, idk if I'd be trading Hyman. What he brings to the leafs might exceed his market value, or even an overpay. It's kind of like how the Flames would want a lot to get rid of Bennett... not that Hyman is better than Bennett, but the Leafs don't have many grinders on the team to get dirty pucks and provide good support along the boards and in the corners.
