What would be the cost?

Obviously a 3rd and 4th round pick to Seattle.

I'm apparently in the minority here, but IMO it makes plenty of sense to trade Bjorkstrand even if Nyquist is the ideal guy to move out.

Nyquist is a good player whose value is essentially zero right now due to the cap situation and CBJ's lack of leverage. But he's moveable. CBJ just needs to accept a return of basically nothing or add a mid-round pick.

They don't need to trade Bjorkstrand, so Bjorkstrand's value is unaffected by the cap situation. Which means they can use him to get significant value, then turn around and move Gus (with retention) at his full value to get even more assets. That's a quicker path to fixing the holes on the roster (defense and center).

Pretty solid analysis

You will get a 3rd and a 4th

So a 7th for Nyquist ?

Something around Wahlstrom for Bjorkstrand would probably benefit both teams.

CBJ gets cap space and a right shot sniper with potential, NYI gets a proven goal scorer now that they can pair with Barzal now.

Why do you hate Wally so much? Lol yikes

I don’t hate Wahlstrom, but he has value because of the current cap situation around the league. You have to give to get.

There is some crow served on a silver platter in this thread.

Welp, close this shit up.

Pretty clear most of HF does not have a grasp on actual values perceived by GMs
