This was the point that I agreed with Flash on- and I still think it stands. If we were willing to trade Brodie for help up front last off season why did we stop when the Kadri trade fell through? There must have been some other options out there? Hell the panthers moved Vinny Trochek (very similar to Kadri imo), why weren't we in on that one?
We were willing to trade a top 4 d, when our preferred deal fell through we just capitulated and ran with the same roster. That was a
huge mistake.
