I think the Ottawa trade is a bit adventurous. I don't think Laughton is quite what they are looking for at that cost. In theory, they could probably put that package together and get someone around the same age and caliber of Pinto (see Newhook trade) rather than a middle-sixer who is approaching the age curve.
Would love to see that return from Carolina, but with their defense core about the age of 30 and no player under contract through 2025-26, I think they'd like to keep their top prospect Nikishin to either develop or go after a bigger fish (Clayton Keller perhaps).
I think the Hart trade is fine in value, personally not super high on UPL and Buffalo probably wants to roll the dice on Levi and potentially use Ostlund + 1st to upgrade on a different position. Wouldn't mind the return on that one. The other trades are basic rentals
