Description

kakko = 2nd schneider = a high second which is about value i think of with smith especially with retention. could boost NYR top6 or even 3rd line gives kakko a second chance.
Bos trade is just for some useful depth thats redundant in BOS.
They are kinda screwed next year no matter what so hopefully the cap goes up 7M next year for them

maybe not exactly that but they need some high end talent and kakko is NOT that guy and hes not gonna get almost anything but maybe a 3rd schnieder for smith is about the value I see with NY having so many D there gonna have to pay/ are paying. Kakko is for the retention
