Our first window is around Gaudreau’s contract.
There is no way we should weaken our D for futures before Gaudreau is UFA. Each year we need to maximize the opportunity at the expense of the future.
So sign both this summer then trade as required when cap space comes up. If you can’t sign both this summer ten you have to ride them next year because these next few years are our best chance at a cup.
The only caveat is if you could trade Brodie for the equivalent player at forward but that doesn’t address your contract concerns as that player likely only has a year left as well.
