lol no. Guentzel is in no way shape or form anywhere near Tatar's skill level. Tatar is an elite forward. You don't pass up elite forwards. If you have a chance to get an elite forward at 4-5 million a year, you do it. Simple as that. Figure the rest out later.

I don't really aee him as elite either. Very good, certainly better than Guentzel, but elite?
Again, can you make it work? Sure. But what is the true trade cost? And are you willing to cut the roster deeper? I'd weigh it, but probably not. This team isn't looking for more elite forwards. They just need guys to compliment the 3 they have.
