I get the warm bodies argument, it can create its own problems though. We got guys like Bollig, and Raymond as warm bodies. Arguably they took a spot in the lineup that could've been used on a prospect. Vancouver made an even bigger mistake with the likes of Roussel, and Beagle. They compounded the mistake in the trade for OEL.
I think half a year tryout with Huberdeau in a meaningless season would be a good option.
As for Mangiapane, I think he would be difficult to trade, until next year's deadline.
