I was trying to come up with a trade that landed the Flames the 7th pick but allowed them to keep 9. Not sure if Ottawa does this?
To Sens: Markstrom (33% retained)+ Mangiapane (50% retained) + 28th overall + 41st overall
To Flames: Korpisalo (4x4 remaining) + Joseph (2x2.9 remaining) +7th overall
The Sens get the goalie they are after and come out of this deal cap neutral. Mangiapane retained makes the same as Joseph and expires this year instead of next and they get Marky at $4M and dump Korpisalo fully. They get the Vancouver 1st and Flames 2nd. Flames get the 7th overall pick by retaining on 2 players, eating a couple of overpriced contracts and giving up a late 1st and early 2nd.
Another trade I thought about:
Markstrom+9+28
For
7+25+Brannstrom
Ottawa doesn’t really have the cap to make that work unless dumping bodies elsewhere.
