Why are you lumping Brodie in? He wasn’t traded because they were IN the POs at the time, and because he hoped to re-sign him. He lost Gio a year later because they thought they had a shot and because there wasn’t really a market anyway. This year would have been a completely different story.
You can’t name a team that had (a) cap space; (b) needed the D help for a cup run and (c) could afford a protection slot.
