Two teams that have the pieces to make a block buster are Columbus and Toronto

Tor: nylander 1st bos Robertson
Cbj: Jenner 1st

Now depending if the blue jackets win the lottery or not cause no one's trading bedard but if they lose and get 2nd or 3rd they may want to move the pick simply because they only have laine signed for another 3 years and Johnny isn't getting younger they have prospects. As for Toronto they get the chance to draft a high end player and Jenner is no slouch probably wouldn't happen but it's fun

No chance they give up 2nd or 3rd overall for that, even without Jenner inc.

You might be right but their gm is not afraid to make a deal like this my point is it’s more beneficial for them to trade the puck for a high end player who good now then draft that player and hope he can transition into a productive nhl player.

I really don't think Nylander returns a top 3 pick as I have said before. He only has 1 year left on his deal.

Another team could be the Sabres that would find interest in Nylander. Lots of Cap space, prospects, picks and an up and coming team. He would be a player in his prime to play with Cozens, Thompson, Powers, Samuelsson, Tuch, Quinn etc.

Nylander for Kulich, Murray and a 2023 1st.

@Goat if it was something centred around Nylander, I can see it. Maybe Nylander+Robertson+swap firsts.

Which obviously only works if it's more of a sign and trade.

I like that one @Rlf. Good target. Sabres aren't far off from contention and might be willing.
