I think the offer of a 2nd for Barbashev is in the realm of fair - but I wonder if Barbashev becomes more valuable simply because his deadline cap hit would be so low. His annual cap hit this year is 2.2milly and he fills a role much larger than that cost, as he’s gone up and down the lineup, and all special teams his entire career, and plays physical while not having an injury history of note.
If Barbashev is moved I could see the cost actually creep up a bit due primarily to his tiny cap hit meaning there could be more trading partners.
