While not sexy I could see something like
Braun
Dell

Martinook
TVR
Something sexier:

This is laughable.
Braun, Dillon, M. Karlasson, and Dell are all available for picks. I have Braun in the low 1st/2nd (mulitple?) range, Dillon low 2nd/3rd, Karlsson for a 4th, and a bag of teeth for Dell.
Picks can be in '19, '20, or'21.
Dillon + Dell for the 77th selection?
Clears about 5.17M AAV of cap space for San Jose, gives Montreal a LHD & backup goalie.

I don't the Blues and Sharks match up well for a deal so anything I would offer up is more in a vacuum.
Theoretically, if offer sheets were a thing that actually got used, Timo Meier is someone that a team should threaten San Jose with to see if you could work out a trade instead.
“Make a trade with San Jose” for “Make a trade with Edmonton”.
That only works if Timo is willing to go down that path with another team and it doesn't seem like he is.
For sure. Highly unlikely. Takes him being interested (no guarantee) and a team going high enough to make San Jose balk and that’s going to be relatively high.
It is a potential avenue that I would explore if I were running certain teams, even if ultimately goes nowhere. Doesn’t seem likely to say the least.
People talk about whoever the top RFA is (this year it’s Marner) and talk about the pie in the sky 12 million dollar offer sheet, but I think it’s the lower level guys where it can become feasible. Guys like Timo Meier, Josh Morrisey etc are where I think they become possible IF they are going to happen at all.
I agree with this take but I think the pie in the sky 12 mil offer sheet for Marner is not terribly unrealistic. There seems to be a desire by the player to at the very least use it as leverage and I wouldn't be surprised if he did it.
Unknown at the moment but based on DW and Pavelski's comments I'd say there's a good chance he's back. DW will move some combination of Braun/Dillon/Melker/Dell for the space.I'm unfamiliar what's the situation in SJ with Pavelski. Does you guys think he will resign ? Do the Sharks have the cap for ?

God damn it !! After how great he looked when he came back I would loved him as an AvsI'm not sure. I think he'll re-sign but there's some rumblings about him maybe being unhappy and wanting to leave. They have the cap space to make it work with him but some things have to be moved around.
I haven't heard that. Last I heard he said something along the lines of "I'm sure we'll get something done".I'm not sure.

Trade what might literally be the best contract value in the entire league?What thry limely need to do is trade Hertl
I haven't heard that. Last I heard he said something along the lines of "I'm sure we'll get something done".
From exit interviews,
“I’m pretty confident,” Pavelski shared. “I’ve got a pretty strong belief system that I’ll be back here."
Couturier carries that torch but Hertl's not far off.Trade what might literally be the best contract value in the entire league?
