<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CN10</b></div><div>I think Murray and Korpisalo would be a good package trade to Montreal for either picks to make up for keeping Duchene, or for Drouin if the Jackets don't keep Duchene and they can shake him loose from Bergevin. The Habs were unhappy with him to end the year, but he was a high profile acquisition so perhaps they give him more time and just move the picks. It's a team that needs a steady strong skating LHD to pair with Weber and backup goalie to actually win some games when they give Price the night off.

I also agree Milano is heading for a change of scenery trade. I think a team like Vegas who will need young cheap players coming up and have the picks to spare would be a good trade partner.

They may go after a goalie with starting experience to allow Merzilikins to ease his way into the NHL. I think a guy like Varlamov will come cheaply and would be willing to take a short term prove it contract. They could also take the trial by fire approach and keep both he and Korpisalo and see if either can be starting NHL goaltenders.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CN10</b></div><div>Werenski's deal looks fair, but for $7.5M I think the Jackets should push for the full 8 years. I think I'd go to $7M on a 5 or 6-year term. Milano's deal is what he's worth and probably his last chance to stick in the NHL. He doesn't play that high up the lineup though. Korpisalo's deal is perfect, but I don't think you carry three goalies at the NHL level. I honestly think they don't go sign a long term starter, and instead have Merzilikins and Korpisalo compete to be the starter, or perhaps sign a short term starter to mentor Merzilikins and deal Korpisalo to a team in need of a backup.

I would not sign Mrazek long term, but he would be a decent signing on a 2 or 3-year deal while they find out if Merzilikins is their goalie of the future. I think $5.5M is a bit steep (probably a million or so more than I think he's worth). Duchene's deal is about a half million too much but not too bad. Giving up another first to keep him and ponying up that huge contract may end up backfiring a few years down the road though.</div></div>

I think Duchene's contract is more than enough too, but Kevin Hayes's contract just made Duchene's numbers go up as well.
I agree with the statements you made about Mrazek.
