You can't trade away all your good players for futures especially defensemen as they take longer to develop. Especially elite ones. At some point you need high quality veterans to help the young players become quality core players. If you trade Gio, for example, to get Provorov, you're going to have to admit to your team that it'll be at least 5-8 years before Provorov is where Gio is now. That means you're always rebuilding. At some point you need to be there. For this team that should be soon, and Gio can be a big part of that.


Having said all that, hells no to anything longer than 5 years unless dollars are way down.
