Maybe throw everything at acquiring Scheifele:
Backlund + Pelletier + Valimaki + Dube + 1st
Gaudreau-Lindholm-Tkachuk
Mangiapane-Scheifele-Toffoli
Pretty solid top 6 for a 2-3 year window at a cup. Go with Ruzicka as the 3rd line centre with a veteran option for 4th line who can move up and down the line-up if needed.

This just won't happen, frankly. I could see them throwing a lot at Scheifle, as long as his attitude won't be a problem. A palatable package would be Dube + Valimaki + 2nd + B prospect/3/4th pick + Monahan (cap).
Monny's M-NMC would still have to work out too.
