Confirmed with Link: [COL/NSH] Ondrej Pavel and a 3rd rd pick for Juuso Parssinen and a 7th rd pick

Cmac said I'm not overpaying at the trade deadline this year. So I'm gonna over pay now.

But on a serious note. Love this trade, we need depth in the worse possible way. Parssinen can be our future 3rd line center.

All the Finns?

Pavel has been a training camp favourite of Bednar's for two years now but there isn't even a good AHL player there let alone good NHL player.
Pavel isn't a loss but we traded a 3rd rd pick which can be useful at the deadline. Hopefully this guy can play bottom 6 C.
 
He's more of the hybrid center/winger (played both positions quite a bit), iirc, and more of an east-west player than north-south. It'll be interesting to see if he fits and a what position they'll use him.

Only $775 000 this year and a RFA next summer, instead of UFA. Absolutely worth the price, imo. Can imagine Preds fans will be as happy about this one as they were with Fabbro and Tomasino.

Well he seems like a 4th line guy rather than a 3rd line guy based on his production in Nashville.

I imagine he plays 4C immediately and one of Ivan/Smith gets sent down, perhaps both if Drouin is ready. I think Bednar has liked Innala.
 
I’m assuming one of Smith or Ivan will be sent down.

Lehk - Mack - Nuke
Drouin - Mitts - Mikko
Colton - Kelly - LOC
Smith/Ivan - Parsnip - Innala
I feel like Givani will stay up for a bit as a chaos agent, I think Bedsy likes him out there for his 6 minutes. Parsnip LOL already stuck with an awful nickname here. I hope he PRODUCEs.
