Hypothetical Expansion Draft if it were this year
I tried to guess who each team would protect and conduct an expansion draft based on the Seattle and Vegas rules. How would you feel about this team.
Line 1 - LW Anthony Duclair (Tampa), C Mikael Backlund (Calgary), RW Conor Garland (Vancouver)
Line 2 - LW Tyler Bertuzzi (Toronto), C Lars Eller (Pittsburgh), RW Kevin Labanc (San Jose)
Line 3 - LW Pierre Engvall (NYI), C Scott Laughton (Philadelphia), RW Daniel Sprong (Detroit)
Line 4 - Marcus Johansson (Minnesota), C Nick Bjugstad (Arizona/Utah), RW Joel Armia (Montreal)
D1 - Nick Leddy (St. Louis), Brett Pesce (Carolina)
D2 - Ryan Lindgren (NYR), Josh Manson (Colorado)
D3 - Jamie Oleksiak (Seattle), Erik Gudbranson (Columbus)
G1 - Linus Ulmark (Boston)
G2 - Spencer Knight (Florida)
Reserve 1 - Ty Dellandrea (Dallas)
Reserve 2 - Alex Limoges (Washington)
Reserve 3 - Logan Stanley (Winnipeg)
That roster leaves about 8.6 Million in Cap Space assuming the cap climbs to 87.5, so a bit of flexibility would exist as well.
How do you think this team would do? I think they might struggle to score goals, but they would have a really good defense and probably top 10 goaltending which could allow them to steal some games. I'd think this team could probably get somewhere around 82 points in year 1 which is better than we've seen for quite some time, and they'd have cap space to go out and sign a top end free agent, and could probably flip some players for draft picks as they look to build up the pipeline as well.
This obviously won't be the team they get if they come back, but I think it's a good taste of the kind of team we could expect to see in 5 years.

Connor Hellebuyck trade
I'm a Kraken fan and a trade like this annoys me because there is no basis in reality in this. Seattle probably has to give a first and retain salary just to get someone to take Grubauer, let alone get anything in return. Realistically the future for Grubauer is to play out the contract in Seattle or get bought out (Probably this offseason or next).

Bye Bye Grubauer
Agree on Winterton. I just dropped him there because I didn't want to figure out which min player to fill in at C4. Yams is more sentimental than anything else but probably not worth reserve spot at 1.5 which would be what the qualifying offer would be. Perhaps at league min though.

A realistic Daccord Trade
Plenty teams want Daccord. Seattle doesn't have any goalie prospects, so they need a goalie in return if they trade Daccord. Any team that wants Daccord doesn't have that to offer so you need to involve a 3rd team. Calgary has 3 NHL ready goaltenders. Seattle given they aren't in their window would want Wolf of Calgary's 3. Calgary needs to replace some of the veteran talent they lost and would probably like to replace it with a good young NHL prospect with a big upside. Toronto which is D deficient would need to look at giving up a Forward. Matthew Knies had a really good season for a 21 year old and shows a lot of promise. I'm sure Toronto doesn't want to part with him, but he's the kind of player Calgary would want in order to give up a goalie, although I'm sure they'd rather trade Markstrom or Vladar.

Bye Bye Grubauer
Ryan Winterton and Cale Fleury probably are in the AHL next year, but either way the C4 and 7th Dman will be filled by people likely at league min. Grubauer buyout is necessary likely to make room for signing someone like Reinhart. Not sure if Seattle can get him, but Seattle should spend big on getting a top tier goal scorer. A tandem of Joey and a solid backup like Brossoit would be a better and cheaper tandem even considering the buyout.

One Step Back For Two Foward
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.

Next Year
I like Evans, but he doesn't play the right side...having him jump up to be in the first pairing on the right side with a third of a season of NHL experience none on the right side is unrealistic. Given the lack of depth of right hand shot defensemen, I don't see Seattle trading Larson without signing a top pair RD in UFA. I wouldn't see moving Larsson without a 1st rounder in return either. He has too much value for Seattle to not get that in return.

Seattle would probably accept that trade, however I don't think Columbus would accept a straight up trade unless they are that done with him, but if they were I'm sure they would've moved him at the deadline.

Lets be realistic
I don't see Seattle making any crazy big trades for big names. They're not 1 big name away from being a stanley cup contender, so development and patience is the game they need to be playing, but they are also close enough that with the right moves they could be back in the playoffs. First off is that they need another top 6 center. Wright isn't ready for that, and he may only ever be a really good 3C or lower tier 2C. If he develops down the road. If Seattle can entice Lindholm to sign with them that's a splashy move they should make. They have the cap space to make that happen, but we'll see if he wants to stay on the west coast or go east. If they sign Lindholm, that probably makes Gourde expendable since I think Wright will probably be 3C next year. Gourde would be an expensive 4C, and so they can pick up some draft capital and sign a solid 4C for a lower price. There's a number of candidates, but It would be cool to see Gourde go back to Quebec where he lives in the off season and maybe even finish his career there. I think Montreal could benefit from him. Seattle needs to find a 3rd pairing Right Dman.
Tyson Barrie is damaged goods right now, so he can probably be had for cheap, and there could be some upside. a 1 year contract is pretty low risk, so could be worth signing someone like that, who could have a bounce back year and be a steal.
Other notable signings are Tolvanen, which I'm sure Seattle will keep, but will be interesting to see what that contract looks like, and while I was thinking Beniers would get the 8 year deal, he just hasn't performed this year to warrant an 8 year investment even though that's probably the most cap advantaged thing to do long term. I think he gets a 3 year bridge deal that will give the team 1 more year of RFA control to see if he can earn the 8 year contract in 3 years.
As far as the last 2 forwards, Seattle could sign a league min person, but I suspect that Seattle will try and rotate in some of the young kids throughout the season to get them some experience, and I suspect at least 1 of them will really catch on and stay up. I picked Nyman, because he's had a pretty solid year in Finland this year, so it'd be great to see him come over to North America and see what he can do over here next year.

Back where it began
Why would Seattle trade down in the draft to give away Eberle and a likely top 10 pick and get an older less productive Gagner, only for a 3rd in return? I'm pretty sure if Seattle would take a 3rd for Eberle straight up there'd be plenty of takers, and if there wasn't I certainly wouldn't give up a top 10 pick to get rid of Eberle. Seattle could just keep Eberle and their top 10 pick in the draft and be better off for it.

Value is good, but I'm not sure how Zach Jones would fit in for the Kraken. You'd probably need to include a 3rd team to take on Dumoulin and get a 3rd back to Seattle for him. Otherwise you've got Dunn and Oleksiak on the left side with multiple years after this year, and you've got Evans as the up and comer on the left side. Seattle could definitely use some help on the right side, but the left side is a bit crowded.

Wennberg to COL
Colorado doesn't have a 2nd to give, or a 3rd. New York is clearly in on Wennberg and does have a 2nd. Colorado according to reports is definitely in on Wennberg. Given what resources they have they need to offer a package better than New York's 2nd at the very least. That means either a quality prospect or their 1st. Whether you agree with the value or not that's what the market is shaking up to.

Seattle would retain 30% on Eberle and take the compensation that would go to a 3rd team. So I don't think you need to involve Montreal. Seattle probably wants a higher draft pick, but Foegele could be a nice fit in Seattle.

Seattle gladly accepts, and probably retains 50% for that package too...I don't think the Rangers need to give up Lafreniere to get Eberle though. You could probably send Kakko with the pick instead. Seattle would take Vesey if New York wants to send him to Seattle as well, but Kakko and a 2nd is probably enough to get Eberle. Seattle would probably accept a straight up trade to swap Lafreniere and Eberle with retention, but I wouldn't do that if I were the Rangers.

Worth a shot
Wennberg is available for a trade I'm sure, but the pieces coming back to Seattle need to make sense for them. The package would likely be a 2nd or 3rd paired with an NHLer that's still under team control that isn't working out, or an AHL prospect under 24 or Junior prospect. Depending on the 2nd piece would determine what the draft pick should be.
