do you agree with my logic against the toronto deal?
also what would you do to sort out the LHD situation? taking into account Seattle, POJ, Matheson's potential improvement, etc.?[/quote]
Value wise the trade is probably fair but like you said it hurts PIT’s D too much. IDK if Marino is ready for a top pair role, Holl is a decent 4th defender but playing alongside Matheson his play would suffer.
Perhaps do Marner + 1st for Letang + Rust, dump Matheson, keep Pettersson & offersheet Cernak for like 3.5 million. Your defence would be Dumo-Marino, Pettersson-Cernak which is at least decent.
