I don’t mind either trade in isolation, unfortunately part of a pattern that has historically failed to work. Looking at off-season deals, what is Treliving’s pick deficit in trades? The number must be frightening.
Team fails during season, he trades pending UFA’s for picks. Uses those picks and then some in trades to fill the roster with players. Rinse, repeat. If team is in contention burn through more picks to trade for middle and bottom roster rentals. Fill in gaps with UFAs to make sure no cap flexibility.
Sigh.
At least we have HOF calibre coach.

How is it not an extra pick. He turned a guy who was going to go away for nothing into a pick. Like people say he should have done with Brodie. It’s just like he traded Rittich for Zadorov.
