Unfortunately realistic deadline by KD

Anaheims not retaining 1.5 seasons of Henrique without premium assets coming back, and I don't see a first or a top prospect in that package.

Think another piece in Chicago trade is needed. If the thought of McCabe retained is worth a 1st, can't throw Holl in for free. Not saying the additional piece is another 1st but maybe along the lines of a 3rd.

no team is retaining for MULTIPLE years for free.

And while Holl and Engvall are solid players, they have no real value to non contenders as expiring UFAs. Abramov is a pretty midlevel-midlevel prospect and probably doesn;t fall into ANA top 10-15 of prospects, so he doesn;t add much.

Take out the retention and you're still short on both deals.

These pretty much cover the subject: Engvall and Abramov have little to no value to us and a future second plus a 2023 third later than the two we already have shouldn't be the best offer we get for Henrique with 50% retention; if it is, we'll probably just hold onto him for another year.
