Looking at the eastern teams, and who is available, with 1C potential as a priority, I think that this would be my list for potential landing spots for Johnny Hockey :
1) Connor McMicheal - Washington Capitals (if it were 'one for one' I wouldn't even be that mad)
2) Jesperi Kotkaniemi - Montreal Canadiens (plus roster player)
3) Dylan Cozens - Buffalo Sabres (or 7th overall plus roster players)
4) Morgan Frost - Philadelphia Flyers (plus another asset of equal value)
5) 6th overall + 17th overall - NJ Devils (not a fan of just picks)
6) Islanders Package (Noah Dobson ++)
7) Columbus Package (Bemstrom + Marchenko)
8) Florida Package (Aleksi Heponiemi ++)
9) Rangers Package (Victor Kravtsov ++)
just a tonne of options. I think that all of these are stomachable by the other team, and Tre might be able to get more out of them. All of these qualify in the 'rebuild on the fly' mould, where the team wouldn't lose much competitiveness but still secure a promising future.
