    No way we trade Mittlestadt and two firsts, even if it's for Karlsson.

    That's constructive. Why not? Adding Tavares and Karlsson and we are immediate contenders.

    I'd start with Nylander or Reinhart, but if it takes Mittelstadt to get one of the top 3 players in the game, I'd pull the trigger.

    No we arent. You did however put us over the cap, and traded our 2 best prospects and 2 1sts without securing an extension for karlsson. You also underpaid Tavares and traded oreilly for nothing
