People will inevitably be offended by moving Power but eventually it has to be time to make a tough move

Totally fair but I'd say value is probably about even

Would rather keep Jenner, Jiricek, and the 1st. Jackets really don't need to have nearly $18M tied up on the left side next season when they have Mateychuk coming. Not to mention the giant hole trading away Jiricek puts in their future top 4 on the right side.
