What I have never understood is the fascination with always needing to get an asset in return. Simple fact is in a cap area, especially for a cap-adjacent team, cap space IS an asset and in many ways a more valuable asset as it can be used as best needed. The fact that Treliving ”messed” the bed using Gaudreau’s cap space is irrelevant. Losing a couple of replacement-level players and gaining their cap space at some point will be very useful.
