Honestly I think the winner of this trade might be dependent on Hughes’s year THIS year
If Hughes is a top 5-10 center this year and is making 1.35 next year, then Minnesota will be a powerhouse no matter what as they already got the assets and the only thing that stops a team like that is cap
But if the gap between Hughes and Hischier isn’t that big and Slafkovsky makes an impact, then Anaheim wins
Good deal for both sides and I could see this going either way
