Eastside's Hockey Elite Collide

CGY Receives:
Casey Mittelstadt
Blaine Byron

EDM Receives:
Jesperi Kotkaniemi
CGY 2021 2nd Rd pick

Reasoning:
I needed a top line winger for my top 6 and Mitts fits the bill. Hate losing Kotkaniemi, especially with his defensive ability and contract, but gotta give to get. Hopefully mitts lights it up with Matthews.

Just adding CONs:

To Calgary
Casey Mittelstadt(71)
Blaine Byron(73)

To Edmonton
Jesperi Kotkaniemi(73)
CGY 2nd 2021


Mittelstadt will be too pricey for me. So financially, this trade just makes too much sense for me. Kotkaniemi will pivot my 3rd line, get some special team minutes and can take someone's place on my 2nd line any day.
