Why wouldn't Anderson be available? It's been rumored and it makes sense because they have one of the best young goalies in the game already.
Bjugstad is not Huberdeau. Do you value them the same way? If you do, that makes no sense.
I wouldn't trade Huberdeau or Barkov. Everyone else is pretty replaceable to me.
So you're giving up on two 21 year olds in Gudbranson and Bjugstad? I say re-sign Guds to a 2yr deal and give him that time to gauge the progression/regression. Bjugstad is on my untouchable list for now, the kid is really starting to show some glimpses of speed, smart simple plays entering the zone and the ability to keep the play and puck down low.
I highly doubt Tallon gives up those two in trades unless we're getting a proven #1 goalie with 400GP, a legit 1st line forward or defenseman. I'd be happier if Tallon got the pieces you covet so much at Free Agency even if he has to over-pay which will probaly happen.
I see Goc, Kopecky, Matthias and Weaver being the guys possibly moved out, possibly Guds OR Kuli gets moved but not both. We don't know if Viola has given Tallon the green light this upcoming off-season to spend the high dough on FA's.
If Flash keeps producing, he could fetch us something decent if paired with our 2nd rounder this year.
