I like Robertson but Jersey should stick with Bratt. Weegar got Norris votes and Duclair outscored Wood last year. Even though Wood had more goals, it's going to take much more than a second to make that trade remotely even.
Ottawa trade is good for Jersey, bit of an overpay for Ottawa but might not be as unreasonable as it appears at first glance. Subban only has two million in real dollars left on his deal (and would be one million with the retained salary), and if Tkachuk continues to hold out that would give Ottawa the extra cap to get to the floor, which they are currently the only team below. But the extra pick is a tad high for that swap. Unlike what others are saying, it definitely wouldn't be a competitive move for Ottawa. Subban's cooked. But they could use a more expensive cap hit over Holden.
