The 2023-24 NHL season is behind us, but the summer ahead looks busy for Kyle Dubas. Negotiations are looming for Sidney Crosby's contract extension, entry draft, and free agency decisions involving key players. Could last summer's acquisitions like Ryan Graves, Tristan Jarry, Reilly Smith, and Erik Karlsson be trade bait? Dubas might consider moving Smith, with interest from the Kings. Jarry's struggles could attract teams like Colorado, Toronto, and New Jersey in need of better goaltending. Graves' contract might be a challenge to move, but a swap with Josh Anderson of the Canadiens could be a solution. Ottawa is rumored to show interest in Karlsson, possibly with defenseman Jakob Chychrun as part of the deal.
