No way I’m giving up an unprotected number 1 this year. I could see moving Middlestadt or another prospect and taking a cap dump from Tampa. 

-Mittelstadt   
-One of:  Asplund/Pekar/Thompson/Ruotsalainen
-One of:  Pilut/Borgen/Johnson/Samuelson/Laksonan
-2021 1st round pick, top 10 protected   
FOR   
-Anthony Cirelli   
-One of: Palat/Johnson/Killorn 

Or maybe something with Risto?

-Risto   
-Mitts or a 2021 top-10 protected 1st   
FOR   
-Cirelli   
-One of: Palat/Johnson/Killorn

I thought Palat/Johnson/Killiorn have NTC?  I doubt the waive it to come to this shitshow.

Killorn’s becomes a 15 team no trade list after this season, so maybe him?

I honestly don’t know.  Only guys on their roster WITHOUT a NTC are Point,  Kucherov, Cirelli, Sergachev, Cernak, Vasilevsky(for 1 yr), Stephans, and Paquette.

This offseason Cirelli, Cernak, and Sergachev come off their ELCs, and Vasilevsky goes from $3.5 to $9.5.  They need to do something pretty big.
