Agreed 100%, My only slight "concern" with the Kadri/Anderrson trades is if we're going to try to take on another teams misfit toys again as a return.
Trading for Bahl looks like a very schrewd decision and I'm pleasantly surprised, but I just hope we aren't looking at more Frost/Farabee/Miromanov/Kuzmenko experiments.
I think if we can't pry a top prospect out of these teams, I'd be most happy honestly with just more draft capital at this point. The last thing we need is more middle-six wingers/project defencemen.
More than anything though I'm crossing my fingers for a Brock Nelson or Elias Lindholm type return for Kadri w/ a non negotiable 1st included.
Also worth noting that with the Olympics this season and the condensed schedule, I have a feeling we might see more injuries than usual this season as the year progresses, and demand for a guy with Kadri's pedigree should only rise as a result - especially with him getting a few weeks off to rest over the olympic break.
