Overall I like that you recognized Seattle's greatest need for a top end scoring talent. I agree on Beniers likely getting a bridge deal after a disappointing sophomore season, but I think it's probably north of 4 million. Tolvanen may be a bit rich, so perhaps those offset. The one thing I disagree with is acquiring Brady Skei. Seattle needs to find a right shot D. Their prospect pool is weak there, and even if one of their prospects develops, they're at least a couple years away from having a prospect ready at the NHL level, where as they have strength on the left side and have a couple decent prospects as well. The other thing I question is whether Seattle moves Gourde. I think Gourde is great, but would be a very expensive 4C. If they can get some value for Gourde, I think it may be worth trading him and signing a cheaper 4C which could give them more flexibility.

Calgary is looking to get younger not older.
