kessel plays full seasons, you cant rely on Hall to stay healthy ...he played 82 games one time in his career and averages 60 games/season.

Yes, Kessel plays full seasons. We aren't signing Hall long-term, we need him to be good for about 12-13 regular season games, and 16 playoff wins.
You sign Ullmark after the expansion draft. The Buffalo fans are straight up insane. I saw things like a 1st and Amirov/Sandin for Ullmark alone. In the end, Buffalo, nor Toronto fans will be involved in the decision making for which assets move... all we can do is judge it after, and what the results were. I wouldn't expect to give up major premium assets, for one piece, or the other... maybe a first if it's both and there is major retention.

Well hockeybuzz is reporting (I know, grain of salt)...
"The deal is still "evolving" per sources, but is based around...The Islanders sending a first round pick, Bellows, Komarov and a possible prospect for Palmieri with the Devils retaining 50% salary..."
Wow 1st round pick, hope not, that will set prices everywhere else. Seems high to me...

A 1st and Bellows seems like a lot to me...the Devils retaining 50% PLUS taking Leo back as more cap space seems unrealistic. I feel like it'd be either retaining or a cap dump, not both. Also doubt they add another prospect on top of Bellows.

I agree. I meant to add the additional sentence to the above from the same article...
"The Bruins have also discussed sending a first and Bjork as part of a deal..."

Weegar is an excellent player and one of the biggest reasons the Panthers are so good this year. He would have been an amazing pick up for the Leafs, especially for the rumored asking price

Lou paid a 1st, 2nd and 3rd for Pageau.
He paid 2nd round picks for 4th line centers in Boyle and Plekanec
No doubt in my mind he would offer a 1st plus good prospect (or more!) For Palmieri.
Hes that out of touch with trade value

I'd much rather target a good and physical and controllable defender, and then just go 4/4/1 for the expansion.
as long as the player is an upgrade on Holl/Dermott/Bogo i'd be willing to expose them to protect the better incoming defender, as i think that is still our greatest need. but, cant think of any like that available.
Oleksiak/Savard at a decent price would be pretty good. even if we had to re-jig our defense
Reilly - Oleksiak/Savard
Brodie - Holl
Muzzin - Bogo
or
Reilly - Brodie
Muzzin - Holl
Dermott - Oleksiak/Savard
depending on if you want mobility or toughness/size

I hope Lou goes after hall, he'd give up a 1st and maybe a 1st plus, especially if they were willing to take back Komarov

F*ck cancer - RIP Fugu and Buffaloed
Value asides, I'm not shocked to see Lou selling a lot of future to win now. That team has a lot of players close to the end of their prime.

In all fairness what does Lou have to lose? It's his last gig. It's on the Islanders for not knowing that alienating his top players and giving away draft picks like candy was his schtick.

All I can say, is if Lou, or others do drive up prices, I hope that people don't also turn around and blame Dubas for not making such trades.

8. If Toronto decides to go for a depth defender, I could see Dallas’s Jamie Oleksiak being a consideration.

Oleksiak-Bogosian would be a great third pair, I can't see Dermott playing over him when he doesn't even have an offensive advantage over him.

If Dubas can add Hall and Oleksiak, I'd consider it a pretty successful deadline

stick to Dallas and try to steal Oettinger and also Comeau as a depth winger ...Oettinger would likely need a decent piece coming back, but, he may be worth it, and is draft exempt
...or go totally nuts and try to trade Nylander and Kerfoot for Benn in the deal, and do an old school blockbuster.
