So you want PLD, Winnipeg has offered Laine and Roslovic, which is acceptable.

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.

Any trade does not mean every trade. Some you go for, some you don't. Kane was a player that fit the bill, but I don't like his baggage. I am glad Tre didnt trade for him.
In your trade example you make assumptions once again. What if they take Valimaki +? The forwards are not gutted anymore, are they?
But again, we dont know what the ask was. So we can speculate all we want. Point is, Treliving seems to whiff on these trades all the time. If what you say is true, we have nothing of interest, then off with his head anyways. This team should have more assets of interest.
