RWJC Posted June 8 Posted June 8 Snapshots: Conditional Picks, Tocchet, Thunderbirds June 8th, 2024 at 11:59am CST • By Brian La Rose The final series of the playoffs gets underway tonight with Edmonton taking on Florida. The events and outcome of the Stanley Cup Final will also affect the draft order in the next three years. As CapFriendly notes (Twitter link), the following four late-season trades will be finalized based on whoever wins this series: Ducks/Oilers: The 2025 fifth-round pick that went to Anaheim in the Adam Henrique trade will upgrade to a 2025 4th round pick if Edmonton wins. The Lightning also received a pick for playing middleman for Henrique. Oilers owe them a 2025 4th round pick if they lose or a 2026 4th if they win (because the 2025 4th would be going to the Ducks). Sabres/Panthers: The 2024 seventh-rounder acquired by Buffalo for Kyle Okposo will upgrade to a 2024 fifth-round pick if Florida wins. (Florida would also incur a $500K cap penalty next season in this scenario as that is payable to Okposo if they win.) Senators/Panthers: The 2024 fourth-round pick that Ottawa received for Vladimir Tarasenko will become a 2026 third-rounder if Florida wins the series. Penguins/Panthers: The 2025 seventh-round pick Pittsburgh acquired for Magnus Hellbergwill convey if Hellberg plays in two games this round. Hellberg is on Florida’s active roster as a Black Ace recall but has yet to play this postseason. https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/2024/06/snapshots-conditional-picks-tocchet-thunderbirds.html#ref=home 1 Quote
