Would be very open to thoughts/ Other moves they could make (can replace or add trades to what they've already done)
The biggest flaw with this team is with the moves they moved on from a ton of there 4th line depth. Moving Lauko Boqvist would lean a lot more on beecher, Brazeau and poitras to make a bigger jump. I could also see a Faceoff problem like they experienced in the playoffs. Even with Necas (who from what I've seen/ read wants to play C more) and Strome They still lack a guy like most elite teams who is a near guarantee faceoff win. They have a lot of guys who CAN play C like Frederic, Beecher, Zacha, Coyle, Poitras and geekie they dont feel like #2C imo.

Seems wholeheartedly unappealing to retain 3 years on stroke and give up a player we've developed for three years for that.

I know Strome hasn’t been great for the ducks but there’s zero reason to give him up for 3 AHL/NHL tweeners and a couple mid picks.

Can’t see the Canes interested in that return at all

Vaaky has been fairly disappointing and my guess is if he doesn't step it up this year hes either gonna walk the second he can or ull move him for a similar return, strome ur getting 2 depth guys who have already shown to be solid players who can do a bit of everything and both are young pieces you could extend for a longer term to have stability past ur few elite prospects. Ur still rebuilding and ull be doing so for at least another 2-3 years.

Main reason to get value on him. in 2 years he's not going to have almost any value left unless he has a strong season which with how the ducks are built currently I don't see it happening. Getting 2 young depth guys who have played very solid roles on the Bruins and have shown to be solid in everything would be very good to add for a rebuilding team if they want to lock them up on 4/5x2M deals to give a strong stability in there bottom 6 past there few elite prospects. If I were the ducks id look around a bit for Strome first but Im not sold on getting much more then that, Vaaky has also been underwhelming and Mitchell had looked pretty good in the little he's played so him + mid pick is about equal value imo.

Vaaks and Gudas were one of the best shutdown combos in the league this season, what are you on about him being disappointing?

And you think that's giving us value for Strome? You are literally handing us a bag of junk, that's 5 pieces that will more than likely never be NHL players, and you want us to light 5+ million on fire, just for the hell of it?

There’s no value here. 3 tweeners and a couple mid round picks isn’t value. Strome can be the worst player in the league in 2 seasons and that still doesn’t change the fact that this offer is nothing.

Also Vaak proved this season that he’s at least an NHL D. He put up quality analytics. He’s more value than all 3 of the players you offered.
