Not because of getting Toffoli but more so the amount we gave to get him.

That is confusing, as the pieces have decreased in value since we made the trade. At time of trade, I could see someone thinking we gave up too much. 1st +2nd that we just acquired as the main piece to Bennett trade. But you also can't tie those two trades together.
Filip Mesar is an undersized offensive forward that was taken with our 1st. Barely over ppg in the ohl in D+1 but good friends with Juraj. I don't think he's got huge NHL upside, personally.
Heineman only has 2 goals 0 assists in 9 games the season. Looks terrible.
Pitlick was a cap dump.
5th is yet to be seen...
If you decouple the bennett trade from this one, IMO it is still a no brainer. But the bennett trade to Florida was absolute garbage. I wanted to trade Bennett but can't justify seeing him traded for what we did. Garbage move.
