The return on two of those trades would go a long way to reshaping the future of this team.

Yeah, I understand the appeal of making these moves and the trajectory it could send the team on. It would be exciting. Despite the moves last offseason, they could definitely enter a rebuild in short order.
I just don’t think the organization, Edwards specifically, has any appetite to rebuild. He wants to compete and be in the playoffs. I hope they are able to extend Lindholm but if they’re not I wouldn’t be surprised to see them prioritize a hockey trade over a picks package.
I don’t necessarily agree with that but I think that it’s more likely they continue to try and put a competitive team together. It’s also the reason why I think Treliving may leave this offseason. He may not have the latitude to do what he thinks needs to be done.
