I would say every player on that list is a similar skill to duclair and none of them will cost anywhere near the package we gave up. Yes duclair is good offensively but he is ass defensively.

Not even close. Most of the players on that list aren't close to Duclair, and most of the one's that ate close or maybe better are on teams that aren't selling or would extract an even higher premium. In the end, as I said earlier, Thompson wasn't going to be a top 4 in Tampa, and with Crozier playing well and magbe a move for someone like Carrier or Fabbro from Nashville,.not to mention any possible ufa's over the summer, Thompson was an expendable trade piece. JBB isn't getting fired and improved the team in one area that needed it, and hopefully, tomorrow, he'll address another.

I know JBB isnt getting fired, I was just dreaming. We can agree to disagree on Thompson and Duclair
