Definitely one of the worst trades in franchise history.
MTL got so much and gave up nothing.
We lose a 1st in 24/25/26, and in the unlikely situation that FLA's 25 1st is a lottery pick, we could lose a top-10 25 1st (!!!) or lose an additional pick. And what do we have to show for it? We have a 33 year old who is making $7M against the cap for 5 more years after this one.
I always liked Brad Treliving on a personal level, but this trade has always been awful.
