Both of those trades are awful.
Why would we give up two experienced 2nd pairing D men plus a 3rd for a backup goalie when we already have Francouz? Not to mention retaining 2M for the next 4 years...
As for the LAK trade, kovy is old and washed up. Why would we want a 36 y/o on the decline for 6.25M per year? I wouldn't give up any assets for him, let alone a 21 year old top 10 pick.
And why did you sign kronwall? He's also old and washed up, plus we have a million LHDs already. He has also played for the Avs rival his whole career, so that's a no go
Edit: and you're also way to low on that mikko contract
