Vancouver trade is the only one that might happen.

Winnipeg?... seriously, take 3 roster players, 2x 1st's and gut their prospects on D (a position they are weakest at) for Eichel.
Unless your plan is for Eichel to be on another garbage team and not make the playoffs, this won't happen.

Detroit isn’t paying for a cap dump and KHL defensemen.

Kings have those players. Kings wouldn’t trade the 2overall for 8 and 17... the most they drop back would be to 5 but it’s not happening. I’d argue the most they drop back is 3.
