Off Season Move(s) Thread

I see a lot of big names being thrown out there as returns for Rossi. Hope it happens, but I just don’t see it. I think the return will be one, potentially two younger player(s) with potential and/or draft pick or two depending on the rest of the deal components. It’s going to be a young player still on their ELC or an RFA with potential who they can sign for the $5M or less they offered Marco. I think one of two things happens.

1. We are going to sign Nelson for the center position and the trade for Rossi will bring us a winger. It’s not gonna be on the level of Paterka. I’m thinking someone in the vein of Tyson Foerster and multiple picks.

Or

2. We trade Rossi for a center and spend the money on a winger such as Boeser, Ehlers or someone else. The trade return at center will still be a younger player who won’t break the bank plus a pick or two. Pie in the sky would be McTavish or McLeod, but someone like Krebs, Wright, Mercer or Cates seems more likely.
