If no deal is made, Vegas gets a choice of either Manson or Vatanen (in a 7-3-1) or in an 8-1 arrangement, whichever two of Vatanen, Manson, Rackell, or Silvferberg are left exposed. So Anaheim has to offer a deal to Vegas that is "you take player X, etc plus we'll give you a pick, prospect or another player. So the combo has to be pretty enticing. Is Cogliano plus a pick = Vatanen? I don't think so.
