First trade decline.
It’s unnecessary to have two Kuzys.
There’s no need.

I feel like SJ will only part with AB (likely with retention) for nothing less than a 2nd or they'll just keep him. Not saying that is/isn't his true value but I feel like SJ will really only move their tradable players (mainly AB and Duke) for 2nds at minimum.

Too much for kuzmenko. And having both kuzys would be a nightmare defensively

Is the value far off or are you just against the idea of trading the player?
