Well you said again, as in ever. Not one season. It is pretty clear a lot people had no idea what the market was, despite trades like Seth Jones showing what the market is for elite players under the age of 26. Tkachuk being two years younger and Treliving doing a good job definitely juiced the return, but the equivalent of 3 first rounders was always going to be the baseline on this deal. Brad definitely did better than that, especially if he can sign the two players.
