What if its a second or first or both instead of a 3rd. I mean graves is still a decent defensive defenseman.

Tuch is untouchable- he’s our next Captain & we absolutely are not trading him

U could offer three 1sts, and the answer is still “no”

We don’t want futures
And we have absolutely ZERO interest in another LEFT shot defenseman

Sorry, but there’s just no way it’s gonna happen

And left handed. We've got 5 already. Tuch isn't gonna be available for anything reasonable, and this is just stuff you've got lying around.

I had hoped this nonsense would end with the passing of the trade deadline…. Ugh
