What are some teams that are also playoff contenders that would be looking for that kind of trade? I’m really struggling to find a good fit. If Carolina is ok with getting futures, there are plenty of options for trade partners but I wouldn’t think that would be the case. They can’t go Necas to Rantanen to picks/prospects in a year where they have cup aspirations.
As a rental? Every contender! He has a small expiring contract and CAR can retain to make things work. He'd get a massive haul of picks and prospects.

When is that last time a player that good hit the market on a small expiring contract like Rantanen?

Frank mentioned Vegas on his show this morning. Can you imagine?
