A trade isn't a solution, unless we want to give up picks and prospects.
Otherwise you fix one hole by creating another one.
The time to adress needs was the past 2 summers, but MB passed on available wingers like Perron, Skinner, MoJo, Nyquist, Dzingle, and Duclair.
We see now what happens when two players like Drouin and Byron go down and players like Cousins, Weal, and Hudon join Lehkonen and Armia in the top 9. Armia and Lehkonen should have been on the 4th line, with 2 of the above UFA's we missed in the top 9. Then, when there are injuries, it's Armia and Lehkonen that move into the top 9, and we have a lineup that looked like what we had before they went down.
He missed out on Duclair for sure, esp. that we had his friend Domi coming in. The big miss was not signing Radu. We should have rebuilt right there and then when we could not keep him(along with not re-signing Markov). At the end of the day, it's awful roster and even getting something good for Gallagher would not change anything.
He should be on the look out for Duclair, Pageau and Hall next summer but again it needs more than that.
