Taking into consideration MIN's surplus of LHDs, their tight cap hit, Dubnyk's injury (with somewhat lack of strong depth at that position), and the fact that they are locked at 50 contracts right now.
Also taking into consideration MTL's depth at the G position, their large cap space, and dire need for PMLHDs.
Would a deal like this be of any interest for either team?
MIN:
Rielly ($725,000)
Quincey ($1,250,000)
2018 1st rd pick
MTL:
Lindgren ($700,000)
Mtl's lowest 2nd Rd pick for 2018 (of the 3 they have if we include WSH's)
With MIN most likely making the playoffs and MTL most likely going through a rebuilt, that 1st for 2nd swap for picks would be most likely within the 10-20 players range. The deal gives MIN an extra contract and saves them $1.275M for a later deal at the TDL and it gives MTL better depth at the LHD position.
