After/during that Oilers series, I just soured so much on hockey and it remained that way until the ridiculous, fantasy sounding Tkachuk trade. Since then, I haven't been able to stay away lol. Anyways, in the realm of fantasy (which is what this whole off-season has felt like), here's my pie in the sky. Not sure why Boston would do this but meh.
Lucic, Hanifin, 2024 1st, Coronato (would add more futures if needed) for Pastrnak (Boston jettisons Forbort/Reilly or something for their cap issues)
Sign Stastny. Trade Dube to recoup some assets/improve left-sided D depth/sign Milano.
Opening day:
Huberdeau - Lindholm - Pastrnak
Mangiapane - Kadri - Toffoli
Milano - Backlund - Coleman
Rooney - Stastny - Lewis
Ruzicka
Kylington - Andersson
Zadorov - Weegar
Mackey - Tanev
Valimaki
Markstrom
Vladar
Does weaken the defense but man, those forward lines. Obviously, even if possible Pastrnak is UFA and we'd have another issue of what to do with him and Weegar but still... we'd be loaded for a run this year.
Anyways, obviously ridiculous stuff but I sure as hell thought I was being trolled when I saw Huberdeau lol.
