What does everyone think of a Ladd and either a 2nd, MDC, or JHS for Smith (Sens) deal?
I wasn't clear - I meant trading Eberle to say calgary and then flipping those assets and adding to them to land Hoffman.I don't see Florida trading for a UFA if they are out of the playoff hunt. They will be seller, not buyers.
Are they gonna throw those pennies on the ice to trip them?Ain't happen.
OTTAWA Owners are counting pennies especially if they want to trip Duchene and stone

I get what you're saying, but Ladd is paid 1 mil more than Smith in actual salary, but has an extra 2.25mil cap hit, could be enticing...Ain't happen.

starting in 2020/1, Ladd has a modified NTC. he has to submit a list of 15 teams that he cannot be traded to. just curious... can LL trade him to Seattle next year? say that LL agrees to pay 75% of his salary.Can’t see Ladd waiving his NTC for Ottawa.
There’s no guarantee the Kings will move Jake Muzzin but they’re certainly in listening mode. And the asking price I’m told right now for the talented top-four blueliner is a first-round pick plus a prospect.
It’s a high price but it should be. The 29-year-old is a top-notch defenseman and he’s signed for another season next year at a reasonable $4-million cap hit.
I think contending teams are hoping that the price lowers closer to Feb. 25. But keep in mind, the Kings don’t have the move the guy. They like him, too.

Not that I expect NYI to be in on Muzzin, but the asking price sounds like a 1st + prospect.
I know Ladd doesn't have to be protected during the expansion, but I don't think he can be traded to Seattle so that they don't select someone else. Doesn't Seattle come into existence in 2020-21?
I don't think we're in on Muzzin either. Leddy, a first, and Ho-Sang/Dal Colle for Muzzin at $4 million for another season. It only makes sense if Lamoriello wants to shed that Leddy contract. Not sure that'd be the best way to do it either.
Where are you getting Leddy from?
Doesn’t sound like he would need to be included.
I misread it.
Thought it said "a talented top-four blueliner" not "for the talented top-four blueliner." That's a huge difference, my mistake.

We need that 1st for when we offer sheet Marner.I see no reason not to trade our 1st and Pelech for Muzzin. Getting Muzzin makes a big difference in balancing our defense for a number of years. If there was any time to pull the trigger on a trade like this he's a great get.
Zucc> Eberle, especially this year

I’m agreeing with you, he asked which part I was questioningLol Zucc has been awful this year. Even though I am not a big Eberle fan this is a rough take. Eberle is just better.
