Yeah, I could live with it if you take Granny out

I mean value wise it's probably fair but if Granlund is getting moved I'd prefer to wait until the deadline. He's been great in the development of Eklund and Zetterlund. He'll take some tough matchups away from Smith/Celebrini next season as well

Agree but this is pretty tempting
As a Sharks fan, I also agree that the trade is lopsided in favor of Ottawa. According to
Perri Cap Savings calculator Korpisalo’s contract should cost slightly more that #25 (BOS) + #39 (OTT) as a cap dump.
I also think the Sharks don’t look at moving Granlund until the deadline as they are very short on veteran centers to insulate Celebrini and Smith. With Couture questionable to return, Granlund would be their only vet capable of centering a top-6 line.
OP if you’re looking for cap relief, would you do any of:
- Korpisalo + #25 + #39 for Blackwood + #85
(Favors Ottawa by roughly the value of a high 2nd)
- Korpisalo + #7 + #39 for Blackwood + #14
(Favors Ottawa by roughly the value of a mid 2nd)
- Korpisalo + #7 for Blackwood + #33 + #42
(Favors Ottawa by roughly the value of a 3rd)
