Newhook, Byram, 1st and whatever needs to be done to make the cap work. Let me dream.
A top 5 pick, recent 1st rounder and another 1st?

I know you are dreaming but hopefully your expectations are significantly reduced for reality. That is a ridiculous return even Tkachuk couldn’t get that in return

Fair, but adding Johnny to that lineup would make them an instant nightmare for Tampa.

I think we would be lucky to get a package around Newhook alone. Their 1st will essentially be a second if Johnny is involved. Maybe we could stretch it to Newhook+Barron?
That would look nice.

Said it before about the avs but Barron, Nichushkin and a 1st looks good.

Definitely more realistic but man that is still fairly underwhelming. I think this is what we need to be prepared for

Plus, lets not forget how much fun it would be to watch Jonny light us up with the Avs for half a season next year.

We have different definitions of fun.

Newhook and Compher feels a lot like Neiwey to Dallas.

Johnny might have flown back to the east coast after his time with Calgary ended, but he’s not leaving MacKinnon, Rantanen, Landeskog, Makar etc

We’d get to watch him light us up for the next 5-8 years.

A Gaudreau trade with the Avs sounds good to me. They have some nice pieces to make it work.

He shouldn't have played another game for us this year after that. If you don't want to be here, then don't be here.
If this were true (it isn't), then it would be simple confirmation of a pathetic team

I know I'm a weirdo, but Avs were my favourite non-Flames team during the last "Young Guns" era, so... no reason why they can't be for this one coming up too.

Johnny and MacKinnon would be some of the most exciting hockey on the planet if they extended him.

I like it as a basis, I also think the value isnt homerish and is pretty fair for 2 years of Gaudreau at retained value.

When does that signing bonus get paid for this season? Not sure it affects the cap, but do the owners save some $$ if we trade him now?

They can be paid out at any time. Depends on terms of the contract, but they usually are paid out on July 1st in a normal year.
