It is only poor asset mgmt if you believe that:

This equation simplifies to:
Are assets received for MAF better than the next best available player with the disclaimer that I cannot recall if MAF had a no movement clause.
I think trading a top 5 goalie and losing a bottom 6 player would have been a net gain for the Pens...They could have easily protected all their top end talent.

Again, tough to criticize the cup winning team but I think the missed the boat a bit having two high end goalies.

Look at their roster, they wouldn't have lost much
