This feels a little cluttered, but in a well-thought-out sort of way, if you get what I mean.

Gonna wrap my head around it for a moment here-

BUF Receives:
Mantha
Kempny
Hague
Brisson
Tuch
Whitecloud
Elvenes

BUF Gives Up:
Eichel
Caggiula
Peterka
3rd Round Pick
$5mil of retention

VGK Receives:
Eichel
Hagelin
Caggiula

VGK Gives Up:
Dadonov
Smith
Pachal
Stephenson
Hague
Brisson
Tuch
Whitecloud
2nd Round Pick

The Washington part is pretty well encapsulated inside that one trade box, so not gonna chronicle it here.

Overall, I like the return for Buffalo and Washington, but I feel like Vegas are the losers here. A lot of players lost in this trade, and while Hagelin and Caggiula can help to pick up the slack on the lost depth, it still puts the Knights in a bad position, at least until Eichel gets back from injury. If they do or don’t win the cup by 2023 in this universe, this trade would be the reason why, depending on whether Eichel pans out for them and how the players they traded away end up doing. That being said, Vegas is the kind of team that would definitely do this trade, so I see this as a pretty realistic offer despite how complex it is. Buffalo would have to want to compete though, if they’re planning on tanking this isn’t the way to do it.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Eli</b></div><div>True, because it's hard to get all the teams under the cap. I think you've got Vegas a little bit over. But wait. I'm gonna flip Mantha for Kessel and they'll be alright. Nope. I'm wrong. Still over. Even buried Patrick, Carrier, Eakin, Janmark, and Hinostroza in the minors to play Galchenyuk and Baertschi. They could dump some of the guys you added, but it'll cost them. Try again from their side, and give WSH some sweeteners.</div></div>

I got Vegas as 1.3 mil under the cap when I did from their side - remember they lose 10 mil from Smith and Dadnov - they are not retaining Buffalo is retaining - they lose about 7.5 mil from Tuch and Stephenson, and about 2.5 mil from the rest so total around 20 mil -then gain 10 mil Eichel+ 5.7 mil Mantha and Eakin + Hinostroza = 2.3 mil so around 18mil total
