I don't think we need to trade Gus just to replace him with another F. Our issue is we have too many Fs as is, considering KJ, Marchenko, Chinakhov, etc. all need playing time. Trading him for a player like Arvidsson is just adding on more cap for next year; i.e. we can make cap for Gavvy's extension by not taking on more cap for next year.
If we're trading D, I'd rather move Bean than Peeke. Peeke is on a good track to become a B4 defensive-D that we need - I think he and Gavvy could become a killer middle pair in another year or so. Bean is another offensive puck-mover, which we don't need right now.
Silly and Chinny should not be 4th-liners. Swap Kuraly with KJ, and move that line down. Plus, need room for Boone and Tex (see what we mean about too many Fs?)..
