To FLA: Jason Zucker, Santeri Virtanen(P)
To VAN: Nikita Gusev, Urho Vaakanainen
I need to make room in my forwards for UFA and farm graduations over the next 2 seasons. After Mangiapane, Zucker became the odd-man out. Vaakanainen will lead my young defense on the farm until his time comes to graduate, and Gusev is going to give me some insurance(if I keep him) in case some of my young players coming up from the farm fail to impress me enough to stay up. As always, great dealing with Trevor, even if I wanted a tiny bit more still. Cheers!

To FLA: Jason Zucker, Santeri Virtanen(P) To VAN: Nikita Gusev, Urho Vaakanainen FLA agrees. Main thing here is the couple of extra years on Zucker's contract... it's a pretty reasonable rate for a middle-six scoring winger for 3 years. Thinking what rental prices can end up being, I think Vaakanainen is a price we can afford to pay for those extra two seasons, especially with the influx of prospect defensemen we'll be signing this season. Virtanen is nothing particularly special as a prospect but helps balance out the system a bit as it was heavy on D and light on forwards. Thanks Aaron!
