There's no chance Edmonton acquires those 4 players and gets to keep their 23' first. Not saying the value is terrible in these deals just that every selling gm is gonna covet that pick and will likely take a lesser package from a different team if it includes a 23' first

Columbus already has the same offensive defenseman who can’t play in their own zone covered with Boqvist, we want nothing to do with Barrie. Honestly take Barrie and Halloway out of the Columbus trade and I’d say it’s a decent offer.

The Columbus trade just makes Edmonton worse. Barrie has been great value on the backend this season and Holloway has been steadily improving as the season progresses. Roslovic might be better right now but not sure I feel the same way by the end of the year.

I wouldn't. Janmark is extra cap we'd want compensation for, and Roslovic is worth more than a 3rd in 2025. And the 1st for Gav is delayed also.
