Nope. It's bad enough paying $16M and getting not enough production on the top two lines. I sure as hell don't wanna pay the same amount and get no production from the 4th line and healthy scratches.

Ur Basically taking on Vancouver's bad contracts LOL u can something decent with Duchane why would you take a bunch of bad contracts back??

yeah, but all of VAN's contracts expire by end of next season. I doubt anyone will take Duchene or Johansen due to their contracts. The way I view it, we trade two big negatives for some small negatives, and we get 2 2nd Rd picks (of which, the 2022 one is the gem given how deep that draft class is). It is my inner frustration at Duchene's and Johansen's lack of production given their contracts, so I guess I am blinded. I do hope someone will give us sthg good for those two!
