I like the move, agree it is exactly what the team needs, and hoping he has great chemistry with Brodie and elevates both their games.

I don't think it's a "Wizard" type move as I would have preferred if Tre could have convinced Snow to take a prospect like Shinkaruk, Klimchuk, or even a roster player like Chiasson instead of the two 2nd rounders; which would have truly warranted wizard status.

Ignoring the picks, it's still the right move. The window is now as Gaudreau is gone in 3 or 4 years depending if they trade him before his deal expires, so they have to go for it.
