Vegas Trades:

G Semyon Varlamov, $5m (2022-2023)
50%, 2.5m pd for 2021-2022

Toronto Trades:

RW Keegan Kolesar, $0.5m (R)
LW/RW Evgeny Svechnikov, $0.5m (R)
G Mads Sogaard, $0.6m (R)

Was in market for goalie so adding proven vet in Varlamov fits the need. With cap cruntch after couple expensive wingers being resigned I may be forced to let Andersen hit FA and don't love paying him 7m based on 2019-20 ranking.

Moving Sogaard who I am pretty high on and a couple wingers who showed flashes of potential this past year, but figured I'd need to move some upside to get a proven goalie.

Deal puts me slightly over cap, got a few moves in mind will post seperately.
