Can anyone really see Brad Treliving holding a press conference justifying the exposing of Mark Giordano?

Mikael Backlund was the Captain of Sweden's World Chamionship Team for a reason, it's no coincidence Calgary has become an attractive location for the Swedes. Backlund is highly respected among his peers from his home country.

Backlund
Lindholm
Monahan
Tkachuk
Gaudreau
Mangiapane
Dubé

Giordano
Andersson
Tanev

Markström

Seattle Kraken select: Rittich

Bennett, Hanifin and Kylington are likely still trade bait, hopefully in a hockey deal for some character and leadership or for assets that won't need protection in the Expansion Draft.

Protecting 39 year old gio over hanifin is idiotic. If Brad is too panzy to explain why then he shouldn't be a gm. I doubt that is the case.
