Oh I agree but I wouldn't make the trades right now. The defense has been bad but a lot of it is also just bad goaltending.
You keep Brodie, Hamilton, Gio, and Engelland.
Smid, Wideman, and Russell should be shopped but this issue is they have no value now so trading them is pointless.
Hope the goaltending improves and the team turns it around a little, then move them out once they can actually garner some return.
