The point is that he’s overvaluing the Sens prospects. I’m happy for JBD, but Addison is having some pretty dang good success of his own in the A. Every organization has young promising players, JBD isn’t some holy grail prospect that only your organization has. He’s replaceable and not all that interesting in context of what MIN is giving up here.
Sens fans don't want to trade JBD for Addison when they already have a similar guy in Erik Brannstrom (who will most likely be trade bait soon, with Sanderson and Chabot on LD playing like 50 mins per game)
I like Greenway but Sens just let a similar guy go in Nick Paul who they could possibly get back as a UFA this summer. Give up an early 2nd and get rid of Zaitsev, this I wouldn't mind but it wouldn't help the Wild so it doesn't work
But you're totally missing the point here. It is Ridly Greig that Sens fans don't want to move.
Dumba will look for a retirement contract, something he might not want with Ottawa and something the Sens might not be in a position to give him

Gargle your own prospects all you want, but there’s a reason so many Sens fans view JBD as dispensable.
Which Sens fans? Knowledgeable ones?
No one says he's "untouchable" but there's no point in moving him for Addison or Greenway.
If you remove Greig, then it becomes different, JBD would probably be available for Dumba.
That being said, not sure he'd be a target because of his incoming contract. Sens already have several contracts to sign and might want to get a winger for Stutzle.
And yes there's a log jam (If I'm not mistaken, all of Del Zotto, Holden, Mete and Brannstrom can play RD too)
Zub
Hamonic
Zaitsev
JBD/Thomson/etc
I'd do Dumba for JBD, 2022 2nd round pick (OTT), Zaitsev (1 M$ retained if you want) but that'd be pretty useless if Dumba leaves as a UFA.
