Yeah, despite Healty possible being one of the best power forwards in the history of the NHL (right, Lathum?), I can't see trading for his huge, long term contract. He can score a ton of goals, but he seems to lack quite a few intangibles.

That means they need to find a team willing to pay $126 over the course of 12 years for their services. That cap hit, around $5.25 per year, isn't terrible for a first line forward, but, still, that's a LOT of money and a long, long time.
