While I don’t support this as it stands, let’s see if we can spin it;

1. We aren’t winning anything with the status quo. Why not try something, PP could use the help.
2. Brodie and Barrie both on expiring deals, with Barrie a year younger.
3. Barrie’s cap hit is 2.75, Brodie’s cap hit is 4.65

We get a new look, get a touch younger, and save a fairly decent amount of cap to foster perhaps another creative move or two.

Worst case it blows up and we are who we thought we were.

Best case ignites our PP and Monahan and Gaudreau get a spark from it.
