I like this approach but some minor tweaks to the Tanev and RNH deals. I don't believe both of the players sent along with 1st round pick will be the package it is way too much. If a first is in the deal, then Brown and Zaitsev is an overpay. I can see 1st, Borgman, Bracco as the package for a player that holds a large cap hit that doesn't play full seasons. As for the RNH deal, I can see Gardiner going the other way with Edmonton picking up 25% of RNH salary, we may need to add a secondary prospect to deal but it wont be a straight salary swap. But our D with DeHaan signing should be:
Reilly-Tanev
Dermott-De Hann
Hainsey - Zaitsev
Completely agree with Edmonton having to retain on RNH.
As for the Vancouver trade, it might be a little much from us but the reasoning for my proposal is because, do you really want to be paying 4.5 million for a 3rd pairing. Zaitsev going back gives us some much needed financial flexibility if the other moves are to be made.
Salary Out-
Brown 2.1
Gardiner 4.05
Zaitsev 4.5
Total
10.65 million
Salary In-
Tanev 4.45
DeHaan 5
RNH 4.8 (20% retention)
Total 14.25
