Gut check time is coming for Connie's brain trust and his messaging with other GMs.
So curious as to which teams he would be willing to extend with. Hopefully it is a better list than the Stars and VGK. Ideally one of the teams would be out east and have better trade chips to work with... but if those are the teams then "Anyone but vegas" kicks in and you to make a deal with the Stars.

At that point the trade value would turn into:
Sign & trade to one of two teams.
Trade to other teams and let them work to extend him with the time they "buy" to negotiate.

Never say "pure rental" from a selling perspective.
