Nobody is taking Allen with his extension. At $1.4M as a rental, he had value. With 2 years @ $3.85M coming up, he only has value to us because retention is off the table.
Edmundson was in the running for a 1st with retention and being a 2 year rental, before his health issues. With other unexpected and/or termed D hitting the market, it was less likely even before all the trades. With a lot of buyers off the market and the injuries, we'd be lucky to get enough of a return to justify moving him.
I had high hopes to keep the rebuild momentum going with a decent trade deadline, but circumstances have changed. I'm not expecting anything other than maybe a last minute Drouin trade. Anything else is either a bonus or a move to make a roster correction (like a Matheson trade to remove some LHD congestion).
