Agree to disagree...
If Tre called and said Gio for Kane, Tre gets laughed at.... yes, please give us your 34 year old d man who will be retiring once we turn things around.
If we look at the situation from a middle ground, Buffalo has all the leverage so we only make the trade if we believe it helps not just make playoffs but win a cup. Tre has made trades as of late as if he does see this as the window to go all in.
Gio is a unreal D man but I don't believe his level of play over the next 3 years will be any better than a Hamilton, Brodie, Hamonic over the next 3 years. I also don't believe that losing 1 of our top 4 d men hurts the team at all if it means a instant impact forward who is still young coming back the other way.
