receives:Phil Kessel, $5.4m (2013-14)Jonathan Blum, $2.0m (2013-14)James Reimer, $10.0m (2014-15) receives:Evgeni Malkin, $8.7m (2013-14)Drew Doughty, $6.9m (2013-14) Round 4 Round 5Well, this is a tough deal to do. Gilly was looking for some cap room, and I ended up getting a lot younger.Reimer is a huge contract to take on, but he is still young, and I have plenty of cap room next year, and his contract will be way less after next year. I hate losing Malkin, but I am pretty deep at Center, and needed a RW really bad. Kessel is a beast and still young (6 years younger than Malkin). Doughty is another tough one to lose, but I needed to move some additional cap, and Doughty is paid just way too much. Blum is a nice young piece that is in a new place and hopefully can perform for Minny. Thanks Gilly for the deal. It went quick, but a lot of work on both of our ends!
