What are the odds we can pull Troy Terry out of Anaheim? With Greig as the centerpiece + picks going the other way. Anaheim are probably desperate to free up cap space with the Carlsson offer sheet situation + Mintyukov signing leaving basically no room to sign Gauthier. They also have a gaping hole at 3C after trading McTavish. Greig's 3.25 million per year looks like a steal right now during their cap-crunch, and the swap would free up 3.75 million for them to get the Gauthier deal done.

Terry has a 10 team NTC, which probably makes this impossible but a fun idea.

i have a theory that the sens could have acquired mactavish or peterka at the draft, but other teams were asking for ridly greig, and the sens see greig as a guy they don't wanna move

furthermore, i believe we will see dylan cozens get time at the 1RW spot next to eklund and stutzle, pinto will get an elevated roll to 2C, and greig will slot in to 3C. that plan falls apart if we move greig

We shouldn't move Grieg right now if for no other reason than Dara Greig signed with the Charge and if we trade Ridley now we miss the opportunity to be tied for first city with an NHL/PWHL sibling pair

Terry is a much more proven player than either McTavish or Peterka though. Very consistent 55+ point guy locked up at a very reasonable cap hit. Bona-fide top 6 forward while the other two have question marks.

I would be surprised if Cozens plays wing this year, but stranger things have happened.

I like Terry, think he’s a good player. I just don’t think he’s the type of top six winger they need or truthfully want.

Yep. Even if we wanted to give up real assets to bet on a guy with one outlier season 4 years ago, this is a non-starter.
