I’m going to suggest that Friedman doesn’t know jack as we have Perfetti, Lambert, McRoarty, Barlow, Chibrikov that we already need to make room for. Bring in another winger is the last thing we’d need. In fact I think we are probably looking to move Iafello as well.
Kevin Fiala trade to the kings for Faber and 19 oa would be a decent example. Debrincat trades and Dach, although traded at the draft don’t feel like as good of fits.
The analytics and puck transition numbers will be what makes team covet Ehlers. With top line utilization and pp1 usage he easily goes above a point per game.
Maybe a sign and trade a la Matt Tkachuk could also be an option to maximize the return. I would prefer to keep as a rental then take the proposed return.
