I’m not making it up. I’m extrapolating from you saying any trade is doable if you just decide to pay whatever you have to.
So you want PLD, Winnipeg has offered Laine and Roslovic, which is acceptable. So you have to beat that, and frankly, Tkachuk alone might not do it - PLD and Laine were both drafted ahead, PLD is a C, Laine has outscored Tkachuk, plus there’s Roslovic. So you offer Tkachuk plus Mangiapane. Columbus says no, we need a C. OK so now it’s Tkachuk plus Monahan or Lindholm or Backlund because you really want PLD and in order to make the trade, you pay any price.
Gutted. Your first or second best winger plus a key centre. When you don’t have Scheifele already on your team.
