It's really not that crazy.
Even scouts that are high on Frondell and Desnoyers will tell you they only see them as 2nd liners.
What do you see Lardis being? I think he's easily a top 6er. He could be in that role as soon as next season. Why trade him for guys that might be able to do that in 3 years?
Lardis is definitely top-6 or bust but I don't see him in the NHL next year, no. There's going to be an adjustment period for him trying to score as a pro.
I don't get how you think Lardis will be in the NHL next year in a top-6, as a 20-year-old, but you thought there was zero chance 23-year-old Dominic James could fill a depth role in the NHL as soon as next season.
