They have Duke, Shipachyov, their entry draft picks and their expansion draft selections. You want to further handcuff the team by not allowing them to make deals? Ha.

If both teams agree, what's the "harm"?

Roof-Daddy's already gave a scenario that makes sense for both teams.

Heck, the Knights second round draft pick to the Ducks for "future considerations" where the Ducks agree to leave Vatanen/Fowler/Manson available to be drafted as the future considerations probably works for everyone...

Maybe the Knights knew that the Ducks would have made Silfverberg available in a 8-1 scenario after buying out Beiksa, but the Ducks will be throwing a fifth round pick to the Knights if they agree to take Silfverberg regardless of who's available saving themselves from buying out Bieksa. There's a ton of options, just takes both teams to agree.
