Kakko is a reclamation project at this point, and I honestly feel its worth the risk as he fits the age group and position we need.

With that said where does he slot in here?

And what do we give up? or what are we comfortable giving up at this point? The ask was a 1st+ in the summer..

Andersson would be too much.
Kuzmenko has no value.
Kadri isn't going anywhere.
1st is too steep at this point.
NYR don't need a goalie.

Not that I know if NYR has any interest, but would Pelletier be a starting point?
2nd + 3rd?
2 2nd's (Bennett deal)

I'll add that Dreger said this morning that he thinks Kakko would be a sneaky good pickup.
Feels his pre-draft play is still there and that the NYR coaches didn't give him a long leash.
Needs a fresh start, compares it to Bennett.
