Columbus: Losing Provorov to UFA likely, some need for a top 4 dman
Boston: Could use a top 4 RH dman, accumlated picks at the deadline
Philly: 3 1st round picks, could use a dman
Florida: If Ekblad leaves they have a big hole at RH dman.

Getting the Atlantic teams (Detroit, Ottawa, Buffalo, Boston, and maybe Florida) into a bidding war here seems like the move to me. Lots of those teams need a RH dman and have some attractive assets. Need to play them against one another.
The nice thing about those teams is that, except Florida, they all have potential to be underachieving teams whose draft picks end up fairly high.
