I think it would take different pieces and more to acquire Drai. Saros is a great goalie but there's no real precedent for trading a goalie of his level and, as such, it's tough to gauge how much value he represents in a trade. Further, if EDM is trading Drai, they're better off just buying out Campbell than decreasing the return for Drai.
