I would expect at LEAST an established top 6 forward, a first and a A prospect. He gets a lot of hate on this forum, there isn't a GM in the league that wouldn't offer Tre a lot more than he gave up.
He pretty much gets you a Benn or Seguin type straight up, perhaps more, he is a star in this league.

I have to agree Hamilton is a top 10-11 d-man in this league......
if Winnipeg, Nashville and Calgary were the only 3 teams in the league.
He would not be top-4 in Winnipeg Byfuglien Myers Trouba Morrissey or Nashville Josi Subban Elkholm Ellis
All of these 8 players kill penalties and are able to play the last minute of a one goal game. They also are able to play the PP. They would all step in if their goalie was run. Granted they would not have to fight Lucic or Reaves because their teammates would create a dogpile
conceding that Gio is better that leaves Hamilton as #10 out of these 3 teams at best.
Brodie has played at a significantly higher level than Hamilton when playing with Gio AND Engelland as his partners so another team looking in might rate Brodie higher when trying to fit him into their team.
