Description

Relieving cap, added a deeper bottom six while maintaining a similar d-core.

Gio is arguably better than muzzin at 1/5 of his price and less injury prone. Sandin deserves a bridge deal.

Ducks decline. Muzzin isn’t of value for ANA. Make it Sandin instead and that should be ballpark

I think he is still a useful dman on a fair contract. Wouldn't be the worst deal for the ducks alongside the picks. We all know gibson is being shown around the league too right.

As much as I actually like this team, like jded said, ducks easily decline that trade. Wouldn't give away Sandin tho. Just keep Campbell at that point. Costs less and younger. Also wouldn't sign PK. ARI prob declines too. Would prob have to give up a 2nd + 3rd. Keep the extra money from keeping Campbell instead of Gibson and PK or possibly use that for another depth piece, whether a 3rd or 4th line depth piece or a 3rd pairing dman.

How is trading for arguably the worst starter in the league over the past 3 years a genius move?

I agree with all those points 100%
