Sujet: What should have happened before the 2015 draft

...who has a cap hit of 10,5 M$ for the next 8 years. With this trade, you would have been able to keep Saad, Sharp, Oduya and Johns. Saad and Oduya would probably have took an hometown discount, saving you maybe another 1 M$.
...and you get a consensus future star to be grown behind one (if not the) best player in the league.

...nearly half of this potential 6M$ is for Panarin, which I don't think he will get.

I concede it would have take huge balls to do this trade at that particular moment (after a art ross caliber season and a cup), but i think it would have been the perfect trade from a cap management point of view.
