Description

Better mix of size in the top 9 with solid veterans with the kids, still have ample picks and prospects, bringing in Roy, Slaf, Reinbacher.

Seems like a lot for Couts and Hart, but theyre taking Dvorak and Allen cap hits (definitely not part of their rebuild), Barron is easily replaced by Reinbacher/mailloux,

Tbh for getting a starting goalie and a real strong 2C and giving away 2 cap dumps, this return is not a lot at all. 2 decent prospects and 2 picks in 2 years is really not much

^Ditto and you're not getting 5 picks for 3 dumps in other trades

regarding anderson to AZ; middle 6 W with 4x 5.5m left are tough TDL moves. teams that are looking to upgrade at TDL arent looking for long term deals on 29yo and prolly dont have cap, teams with cap prolly are not in playoff hunt and dont need him and arent looking to dump picks. only takers i see are playoff team that has injury on LTIR, even then i think an expiring W is more attractive.
