Kent Hughes admits he refuses to trade a 2nd-round pick in order to move Carey Price's contract

"Kent Hughes has been clear. He will refuse a trade where he has to give up a second-round pick with Carey Price." - Renaud Lavoie
"A team could ask for a 2nd-round pick-which Hughes will refuse to give up."
- Renaud Lavoie
This clearly gives us a better idea of the price to be paid, and a better sense of the upcoming trade involving Price.
All the details are in Renaud Lavoie's article, but know this: Kent Hughes would refuse any deal where he has to add a second-round pick or more in order to dump Carey Price's contract.
The three teams identified as potential trade partners for Price are the Pittsburgh Penguins, the San Jose Sharks, and the Chicago Blackhawks.
