Or some have said he should have been traded and Brody should have been re-signed. Now likely that was actually impossible and Brody was always going, but if that had happened we'd still have one top 4 D to expose out of Brody, Tanev, Hanifin and Andersson.

I guess that's the difference between having a goal of making the playoffs vs winning the cup. Your first paragraph pretty much sums up the problems I have with the current goals of the team (just make the playoffs and anything can happen).
