If Fitzgerald does trade the #10OA, there’s a good chance it’s to bring in a forward in the age range he talks about in the comment Lanny quoted.

I think you are overvaluing Macleod and overselling their need for a forward. Toffoli had another 30 goal season last year he would have been top 4 on a lot of teams. There are far more solid forwards available in free agency than goalies. They have Hughes, Hischier, Bratt who are all top line forwards and Mercer is a guy who could pop next year.
They clearly need a goalie. Their GM stated they need a goalie and cited they would shop the 10th pick with that in mind.
