Confirmed with Link: Alexandre Carrier acquired from the Predators in exchange for Justin Barron

[McGuires Corndog]

He'll get 2nd PP duties behind Josi. He's a player they actually need. There's very little offense behind Josi, so I'm sure they're hoping that's what he'll provide. From our end, we needed a veteran RD who can defend.

With Hutson & Matheson on the team and Engstrom & Mailloux in Laval Barron was no longer a need. He was when we got him, though.

At that time, we only had Mailloux in OHL. Nothing in Laval. We would draft Hutson & Engstrom in 2022 draft, and trade for Matheson in summer of 2022.

Not to mention drafting Reinbacher in 2023.

Barron was obsolete from that day forward unless he took off, which he never did.

Agreed.

Terrible trade by Kent Hughes.

I am asserting that it is a good trade as Carrier is likely better than Barron will ever be.

This board has pretty much planted their flag that the best move was to keep Kovacevic and waive Barron.

Instead Hughes gets a 4th and Carrier.
