I think it's apparent at this point he's not going to make moving him out cheap on us. Seattle probably see's a lot of pieces they'd like that we cannot all protect (Joseph, Colton, Barre-Boulet, Foote), so, they're going to be able to probably come away with quite the haul off us.
I've soured a bit on pursuing Seattle to take McDonagh. These past few games he was gone it was clear we were not quite the same team.
So, assuming we have to get Johnson out of town to his only suitor in Seattle, and we're not considering retaining significant money or a buyout over 6 years, what valuable pieces are we willing to move?
Do we offer up young players/prospects like Colton, BB, Joseph, or Alnefelt to preserve our 1st round pick. Or would giving up the 1st, 3rd, and maybe more of a project prospect with upside like Jack Thompson be a better route?
