Fiala Rumors according to Marek

Easily. NJ says no.

I wouldn't make the trade if Smith is involved.

I'm on the fence about whether I'd do it 1-for-1. It also really contradicts Fitz's “Too much of the same up front” comment. Fiala is an insanely similar player to Bratt.

I'm giving up Smith in a second for a player like Fiala. Honestly, I don't even want Smith in the lineup next year and I was one of his biggest defenders all this year. I just see him taking the same path as Will Butcher

Smith and Gallagher are good friends
Maybe a swap 1 for 1 with Jordan Harris ?

That's fine, I think Smith is on the outs a bit too. Doesn't mean he's a throw-in for a trade.
