I know, I am talking about the 2019 TDL. Trading Valimaki for a pure rental would be terrible asset management. I am glad Treliving stayed away from that. The Knights unfortunately had a ton of picks and a prospect they felt they could give away to continue to be a contending team in a weak division. Don't fault them for going for Stone, but they didn't have an upcoming RFA in Tkachuk that needed to be re-signed to a reasonable deal. Luckily, Treliving was able to complete that deal.
And I disagree with saying that we could've moved Brodie or Hamonic, we still would have needed cap space regardless. Even if you moved both we'd still need cap space. The 2019/2020 offseason wasn't good, we should've moved Frolik but we didn't.
