Why would Vancouver give up a top 10 pick and their best RHD prospect for a guy who will be a free agent in one year. They could sign RNH for 6 mil and keep all their assets

Reinhart is in the ballpark, probably a better prospect than woo. The eichel trade is missing probably two solid pieces.

Eichel trade isn’t nearly enough

Even if u think Risto sucks, there’s plenty of teams out there who feel differently- and even if there’s not, taking Kerfoot back doesn’t make much sense.... we don’t need an overpaid LW4
