I'd pass on both. Patrick's migraine issue is very concerning. Losing a full season to migraines is not a good sign. Migraines can rear their head at any time and render a player useless. I need reliable players. As talented as Patrick may be, and I also don't see that, I wouldn't consider him reliable. A player that comes with incredible risk built in. If he's part of a deal he has to the third most important player coming back. You can't give away a franchise player for someone who can only sit in dark silent rooms.
Brink is yet another undersized overhyped prospect. He gives me the Rocco Grimaldi vibe. If he makes it I think he travels a long road to get to the NHL and establish himself. High risk pick with minimal high end upside. If we deal Gaudreau we need something in return that is established and will play and contribute for the team.
