I think Marchenko is a "core piece" who I would not trade under any circumstances. I would offer Chinakov instead.
Fantilli-Chinakhov-Marchenko-Johnson
And Mateychuk, even though some people will say he hasn’t proven anything or isn’t an NHL player…
Should all be looked at essentially all the same. Different players, but, easily all legitimate “core” players moving forward. We have MORE than enough cap space where we would be better off signing a high end UFA or look to make trades using our future 1sts.

What makes Marchenko a core piece, and not Chinakhov??
