Trevor Zegras - Most likely of the list I think. But I don't want him. Reads as a me-first one dimensional scorer. Maybe he'd put some butts in seats through the rebuild/retool though?
Dylan Cozens - Doubtful Buffalo moves him.
Kent Johnson - Maybe? Tough to gauge his trajectory right now after a rough season.
Cole Sillinger - I think he's who Columbus would rather keep over Johsnon.
Danila Yurov - he's playing in the KHL next season so probably a non-starter.
Connor Geekie - Might be an option as he's behind a couple guys on their depth chart now.
Nate Danielson - Really doubt the Wings move on from him before he even gets his feet wet in the NHL
Marco Kasper - Maybe. But similar to Danielson I think they'll want to see what they have in him vs. NHLers first.

You can offer sheet either Lundell or Sillinger and eliminate the need to negotiate and just put the decision to either franchise on whether they want to pay 4.5 million for one year or lose a guy for a 2nd round pick. If you wanted to go down that route.
