Pretty underwhelming return for retaining that much salary and taking back 3m for Yamamoto. Broberg is a promising LD, but that's already an organizational strength for us. Not a deal breaker, but any EK65 trade should try and shore up some of our weaknesses like RD or forward talent. Holloway or Bourgault should be targets for us over Broberg I think. Its not a bad package, its just not enough for all that retention I think.

Also, I doubt Bystedt makes the NHL this year and Benning definitely shouldn't be on the bench.
