Someone said it best in the trade rumors thread: the minute we drafted Parekh, Andersson should have been on the block. Oh but wait, it's not too late... After acquiring Brzustewicz a few months prior, AND drafting Mews in the same draft the day after, you still had that chance of trading him during the offseason of 2024.
At least we traded Markstrom when we did. Should have done the same with Andersson. I get no one was necessarily knocking on the door for Andersson's spot, a lot of question marks on defense, but it was till the right time to do it.
Can't say the 2025 TDL was a good time to do it because it wasn't. We were chasing a playoff spot.
