Problem is that the Stars don't have much in the way of futures to offer other than Heiskanen due to years of questionable drafting.
Yep. Agreed. Imagine if Heiskanen didn't fall into Nill's lap.

They'll move futures for Karlsson, and JT or TJ in a subsequent deal to spare them from going to OTT
I think something like
Sergachev+Gourde+Raddysh+2020 1st for EK65
move TJ/JT in a subsequent deal for futures to replenish the cupboards + cap room
Karlsson's cap hit is only $6.5M this season, so the Bolts would have to move $3-4M out. Trading Stralman or Coburn should do the trick.
He gets to submit a 20 team trade list - but Ottawa not likely on it.
Good point. I was forgetting that - but they still will need to make more space by next season.
Howden went to NYR in the trade. Foote isn't good enough to be main piece.Sergachev, maybe, but not Kucherov.
I think the Bolts are going to load up a package of picks and prospects, starting with Foote and Howden.
Stral won't waive . I'd rather have serg than Foote if I'm OttThey would need to move both JT & TJ to free enough cap space. Doubt they include Sergachev. Take him out, put Foote in and add Stralman. Then moving either TJ or JT works. Raddysh and Foote are 2 pretty good looking futures.
Yes. It has to Serg as the main D piece. Then a forward prospect, roster player and a first.Stral won't waive . I'd rather have serg than Foote if I'm Ott
I think that's too much from the Bolts.Yes. It has to Serg as the main D piece. Then a forward prospect, roster player and a first.
No, he has a full NTC per capfriendly.
Better TB than Vegas or Dallas for the Jets...I'm very scared of Karlsson ending up in Tampa
I have no idea why OTT would take a worse return to get rid of Ryan. Take the best return for a franchise player and deal with Ryan sticking around.
Tampa’s package is likely centered on Kucherov and Sergachev plus picks. Not sure both would go to Ottawa, I think they’ll deal one for a 1st rounder to send to the Sens, perhaps with another salary dump included to a 3rd team.
Hopefully for Ottawa’s sake they’ve given up on dumping Ryan with Karlsson. I honestly can’t see a package from VGK being that good. VGK would be crazy to send a bunch of picks out at this point in their development.

whoop whoop

ottawa's tanking, not replacing. i mean, rebuilding, since they have a bit of a draft dillypickle coming up.I just hope Ottawa turns to us with regards to replacing Karlsson with Myers. Myers' contract is attractive for a team with no willingness whatsoever to pay money for players.
