It's just too bad their prospect base is so bad. 1st, Connolly and the kid they drafted in the 2nd round this year feels about fair value eventually if still a lot underwhelming.

Would be nice if a team that isn't so good steps up with a one better asset for him as a rental like another 1st or a blue chipper.
At this point I think CC has to be ok with a first potentially deferred till 2027 if the 2026 pick has conditions on it. Or even 2 2nd rounders plus a b level prospect.

What this team "really" needs are replacements for Gaudreau and Tkachuk, that will only happen through the draft, a story for another day
