We would still have Matheson and Meyers as "vets" so we aren't trading away all our vets but are modernizing what our D looks like. I like both Eddy and Savard but they aren't fitting our window and it is better to move on from them sooner to get the young guys who are out playing them bigger roles.

Kings are one of the most common teams reportedly to have interest in those two players and they aren't giving up high value assets for either of them. Eddy's return is a 2nd (conditional on GP) and a 3rd, while Allen is being acquired for a C prospect in Laferriere. If you had read the description the 1st and Spence were the cost to dump the 3 years of Peterson's contract.
