The timeline was provided by Treliving. The rumours of what packages and deals we had provided by legitimate sources.
We don't need to make things up and imagine things.
The Blues offer sucked and was pretty much crap.
The Carolina deal while not fully available was a future deal which sounds like Necas and a 1st.
The Florida offer obviously offered the best win now players and a 1st.
Everyone knew we needed to add another top 4 defenceman going into the offseason. We replaced the Gaudreau production with Huberdeau.
We didn't have any other team to trade with based on the list provided and Treliving said so that they eliminated them right away. So considering a player saying he won't sign and will only sign with these teams the two packages from Carolina and Florida are very good offers.
No one thought Huberdeau production would fall off to this extent.
