Trade for Barrie
I am thinking of offering the below for Barrie and I am pretty sure it will be accepted; the Barrie GM is in full rebuild mode and uses his FA picks to get guys who have been dropped or who are breaking out and then trades them for incremental pick increases; good approach.
Give: 6th round pick
Get: 7th round pick and Barrie
I would have preferred to do a pick swap around 8-10th, but unfortunately his/mine remaining picks don't allow for that. This would likely be a one year pick-up as I don't think I will be able to afford keeping Barrie (he'd cost a 5th rounder to keep and I'm using that for Eichel).
My biggest concern is who to drop. My other D are below. It'd likely be one of Dumba, Petry or Edler. Dumba and Petry were both acquired in trades and Edler is a banger beast, but I don't think it makes sense to run 6D and drop someone like Frost or Pageau.
Thoughts?
