I think the blow your socks off was referencing the contract offfer to Andersson, not the return in trade.
Believe based on some info that our insiders reported, the return from LA included a goalie prospect, which is really something we don’t need more of. If the return was their 2025 pick, we probably would have selected potter with it and we ended up getting potter with the Florida pick.
Prepared as others are for him to start the season here at this point. Maybe an injury et training camp will force a team to pony up and pay the price GMCC has set but could be a deadline deal. Who knows.
