Now they're shorter with the D.Hollowell? WBS still short D I believe, had lots of ufas.

Oh well. Just for one year and you get almost 4 mill in space still
25% retention to get the 2nd and 5th. Whatever, doesn't really make a difference to me.
The 5th is a conditional pick
This makes me downgrade my rating on this trade from borderline fleece to just very good. That's 2 out of 3 retention slots used up. Those are helpful to drive up returns when selling at the deadline.

Kindergarten Kyle brought in Mac Hollowell to make the eventual transition to the pros easier for Mac Swanson.
Bring in DeAngleo just for the lols!
Consider it a win just to get rid of Smith even with a small bit of retention.Like it more than the Hayes trade but that 2027 2nd isn't super useful.
it will be. Getting a 2nd, regardless of year, for Reilly Smith is a win.Like it more than the Hayes trade but that 2027 2nd isn't super useful.
Could be useful to trade out to acquire younger talent.Like it more than the Hayes trade but that 2027 2nd isn't super useful.
Smith openly showed what the rest of the roster tries to hide away from the rink, that it sucks to be a a Penguin under Sullivan. I will never be mad at him for showing how shitty it was to be on the team.Yeah, a 3.75M winger is unlikely to be better than 2024-25 Smith. But we got prospects so I'm happy. Plus I was tired of seeing the sulking expression.
Yeah, like, it's great to stockpile picks and all, but I don't want players who will be 18 in 2027. Do they not plan on contending until 2032? Kindergarten Kyle has mentioned using the picks to "get them in conversations they couldn't normally get in to," so hopefully he uses some of the 27's for that.Like it more than the Hayes trade but that 2027 2nd isn't super useful.
