Since you are asking my opinion. I don't think we trade Nylander, doesn't sort of force us keep Marner? Alex Nylander has NO TRADE VALUE and would also not warrant a two year NHL commitment above minimum.
I like Keller, but that seems like a lot hom and Doan. Bjugstad is not a #2C on a good team.
What are we doing with that cap space this season? We are worse this year as a result of this trade. We can't be making ourselves worse any of the years in this window.
Something around Marner for Keller + could work but I think we need to try to Marner into a young D man in a trade.
Marner is no doubt a better player than Keller, but contracts factored I am not sure that a deal centered around Marner/Keller would be very appealing to Utah. Especially not if they are adding, which obviously they would be.
