Also, just to state it again.... Top pair RHS D are incredibly rare and acquiring one with under $3M cap hit is impossible. People keep trying to diminish or dismiss Andersson's value in a ridiculous hope to reduce future disappointment but with very little effort to try and understand what his value may actually be. It is an odd exercise of wanting to see something happen while also burying one's head in the sand and disagreeing with anyone that is trying to figure things out.

Most of the pushback you have been getting is around proposals that turned Andersson into the 2nd overall or Johnston. If Conroy’s price for Andersson is a young C with top line potential potential then we likely see him go at the deadline for a Hanifin type return. Hopefully a GM on the other end pays up but it’s pretty hard to see that kind of player coming back from a contender.
