I don't know why at this point anyone would want Kovalchuck?

Nashville trades away Turris’s contract being the best part for them in this trade. Maybe retain only a million and not two. But they also have a terrible PP and Kovalchuk would help.

LA isn’t going to take on all those years of Turris contract just for a 1st. It’s going to cost a lot more than that. Marleau cost a 1st and there was only one year left on his contract. Even with retention it will be a lot higher payment to dump that boat anchor contract.

They also trade Kovalchuk who they’re healthy scratching though. Turris is a solid vet that’s overpaid but he’d make Carter expendable. LA needs to do a retool and gaining a 1st is a good start. If the value is off then Nashville can add another pick potentially.

But Toronto didn't have to take back bad contracts or retain on Marleau for that 1st. here, Nashville spends its first but doesn't erase it's problem and for los Angeles to receive a 1st + for anything involving Kovalchuk seems off.

Marleau only had a year, Turris has 5. Nashville trades it’s 1st and loses most of his contract while getting back two guys that could help for playoffs. Kovalchuk at 3M isn’t bad. LA gets a 1st because they take back a bad contract obviously. Calgary is going to get a 3rd for trading away Neal.
