I'm afraid I'd also have to request your 2018 1st & 2019 2nd (both CGY) in order to make it work.
The difference in production and contracts are pretty far apart so I'd need to make that up by asking for those picks to be added.
I can be persuaded to move Hjalmarrsson. What are ya thinking.
The others can't move due to in game signings.
Basically, I'd be looking to get him for futures. It wouldn't be a huge amount, given that he is a pending UFA, but probably fair IRL value for a top four rental.

I'm a little confused. He's signed for next year and getting him now doesn't really make him a rental.
But I'm willing to hear you out on what you consider "futures" and top 4 rental value.

Rental, meaning that I get him for the 2018-19 season (since we are technically in the offseason right now).
I was thinking a package starting with Patrick Harper might entice you. He was over a point per game in college this year and got 4 points in 7 games at the WJC. Could be a Hobey Baker candidate for next year, if Nashville doesn't sign him IRL.

Add in that little 2019 3rd (MIN) and we can put a bow on this May 4th.
Would you be open to doing it around Alex Texier instead? He played well against men in Liiga as an 18 year old, so there's a lot of upside to his game. In fact, he has more upside than Harper does. Only reason that I'd rather do him is because I'm thin on wing prospects, so moving a C works a little better for me, even if it's a better overall prospect.

So it would be 2019 4th (PIT) + Texier

Hjalmarrsson

I can accept that
I'm good with it. But I've got one last question for ya sir: If I were to add the 2019 MIN 3rd, would you be willing to retain 50% on Hjalmarsson? I totally get it if you don't, I just figured it can't hurt to ask

As we know and have learned in this game, the mere mention of salary retention usually means the compensation price tends to rise.
That being said, allow me to give you a couple options to ponder...
Option 1
Hjalmarrsson (50% RET) = 2019 2nd & 4th
Option 2
Hjalmarrsson ($1.1M RET) 2019 3rd & 4th
Hopefully you understand my thoughts on this.
Let me know if either of those work for you, or if we continue to negotiate.

I see the thought process. I’d just prefer to not give up both Texier and a 2nd in the deal, especially since there isn’t a lot of term left on his deal.

Both my options are exactly as written.
No Texier included in either one.
