Maybe 1 more prospect? Preferably not Andersson, Fox, Valimaki, Gillies, or Parsons

To Calgary:
Ryan O'Reilly (Buffalo retains $1 million so we get him at $6.5 mill per year)

Then we make another deal with Ottawa to address our Top-6 RW situation.

To Ottawa:
Sam Bennett
Emile Poirier
2020 3rd Round Pick

To Calgary:
Mark Stone (and we sign him to a 6 year $6.5 million per year contract extension)

Next, perhaps we can lure Domi away from Arizona by offering the following:

To Arizona:
Michael Frolik
Josh Healey
Spencer Foo
Hunter Shinkaruk
2020 2nd Round Pick
2019 4th Round Pick
2019 7th Round Pick

To Calgary:
Max Domi (and we sign him to a 3 year $3.25 million per year bridge-deal)
Lawson Crouse

Gaudreau - Monahan - Stone
Tkachuk - O'Reilly - Domi
Jankowski - Backlund - Versteeg
Ferland - Lazar - Hathaway
Crouse (Called up next year, Ferland takes Versteeg's place, Crouse takes Ferland's place)

In regards to all of these deals, of course we can add in Andersson, Fox, Valimaki, Gillies, and/or Parsons to sweeten the deal if needed, but perferably not if Treliving can work his magic with these current offers.

This forms a solid top 9 with a 4th energy/grinding/heavy hitting line, completely built for the playoffs and the future. Money is left over to sign Tkachuk the season after for $6 million per year.

Wow - maybe buffalo will just send us ROR for a conditional in 2019?

And i'm sure the dressing room will be a great place when Ferland goes from 1L minutes to 4L
