You take a good contract like Kapanen and waiver fodder like Ceci and send them one player back. Even it out with picks. They gain cap space, while we get the best player and the worst player in the deal.
Oh, I agree. That's why I think Hamonic, even on an expiring deal, for Kapanen, isn't that out there of a trade for TO, especially if TO is on the bubble to make the playoffs and Dubas gets desperate. They get a legit second pairing dman that can actually play defence, and shed cap space by getting rid of Ceci, but have to sacrifice Kapenen to do it. It also frees up some cap space for them to upgrade on Hutchinson.

And yes, Dubas said he's not moving Kapenen unless it's for a good deal. But what's he suppose to say? We're desperate, so we're totally open for business?
