I'd include kylington in there and it's probably pretty close then

This is one of the heavier offers I've seen for Chychrun, I just don't see Calgary doing this though. This effectively walls off Juuso from cracking the roster so you're gonna have to trade him at some point

They already have the top d-core. This is poor asset management

Poor asset management is taking away what your the best at to make it mediocre. This is arguable asset management at worse. Although I do not agree with this approach I feel inclined to defend the asset management hit. JC is locked up for 3 years at great value. If its just credits and debits we are talking about (objective asset management), i think it probably actually passes that quite well. Too many fans feel that asset management is about balancing everything out. Essentially becoming average at everything. You have to admit, that is where the tendency goes? Even though, I do agree that I do not think this trade is necessary and valid counter points are definitely given, I love the idea and confidence of doubling down and taking a stance and an unarguable clear IDENTITY. Personally I think they should keep their D as is, don't need to add, but by no means lets not make it not the best D corps in the league.

I'd send Valimaki instead of Dube, that should be more than enough too

Dube's gonna score 25+ Goals and 50+ Points this Season, might even have a Barbashev type breakout season
