I know what was proposed.

Would you trade 9 + 41 + Pelletier for 5?

Quality over quantity.

Your comparison of value doesn’t make sense, the 9th in the proposed scenario never changes hands.

It’s: 5 vs Markstrom (his market value), Pelletier, 28, 41, 64

If we’re saying Markstrom + 28 + 64 = 10, then it’s:

5 vs 10, Pelletier, 41

So, if that’s a no brainer, then I’m assuming we should trade 9 + Pelletier + 41 because that value has to be pretty close as well, right? At least in the “fair” range if a little less than a no brainer.
