that's how I see it, though I could see them targetting higher-end tangible pieces over draft picks:

Matthews for Laine+Korpisalo
Matthews for Laine+Bernier+Hyman
Matthews for Laine+Stone+Domingue
Matthews+Smid+Stajan for Laine/Puljujarvi+Zajac (40%Retained)
Matthews for Puljujarvi+Connor
Matthews for Puljujarvi+Boeser
Matthews for Puljujarvi+Raantanen
Matthews for Puljujarvi+Zibanejad
