Dan, in your video you say reading Graves will cost maybe a 1st rounder and probably Poulin. It sounded like that was a lot. Of course you didn’t say what the return would be. But later you Poulin is a 4th liner maybe at best who would probably bounce back between the NHL and AHL. It doesn’t sound like he would be much of a lose if included in the trade then.
Just to clarify, I didn’t read that anywhere. That’s my analysis of the trade market and recent asks around the league to trade similiar contracts.
What I am trying to say is that it sounds like he is a fringe or throw in player, so not a big deal if he gets added to the trade if it were to happen.
