I really like the options we'd have with the moves you made
But gotta find a way to not make that trade with Edmonton, Connor Brown is a key piece. His speed, non-stop motor, work ethic, offensive contribution and particularly his PK excellence would be deeply missed. It's also important to have a good bottom-6 but the one we'd have here would be putrid. Also keeping Chabot's best buddy as he doesn't have much value and he allows you to have a deeper/stronger bottom-6
So this would be the package (personally think it's a big mistake to trade Pinto and also very risky to get Eichel) :
Brännström, Erik
Pinto, Shane
2022 1st round pick (OTT)
Järventie, Roby
2022 2nd round pick (TBL)
I really doubt any team will/could beat that offer. So with my modifications :
Stutzle-Eichel-Tarasenko
Tkachuk-Norris-Batherson
Paul-Henrique-Brown
Formenton-White-Watson
Defense still sucks though
Quoting: Shibbal18
They drafted 2 dmen this year, one with the first pick because he is a cant miss prospect projected to go #1 and 1 with their last pick. If anything they take a dman as a cap dump
I don't get the logic here... Why mention the number of D-men they drafted to support your argument if they only drafted 2 D-men out of 11 picks?
