Siegenthaler is elite. he is not getting moved for a cap dump. add maybe Pulju and they would consider this

Jonas Siegenthaler is probably the best pure defender in the league. Not someone I would give up for Tyson Barrie.
Plus, Captain Nico and Siegs are best buds
I don't see anywhere on his stats, basic or advanced, that supports either of these claims.
I can see he is good, having more Dzone starts than not and almost keeping his head above water for possession metrics.. but that's it.
He is a 4-6 Dman you task with giving you quality minutes 5v5 and on the PK.
So, someone reliable enough to be an NHL regular, but will never have any high-end offensive upside.
That's not 'elite', that's being above average at best.
