Arrowsmith for 2 3rds and a 6th to Niagara

If accurate not bad asset management. Flip a 23 3rd pick for 2 3rd picks from a position of team surplus.
I'd look for at least one more of these type deals in the next month.

Not a bad 23 draft considering the big swing n a miss on Moore ( comp 2nd? But ya that hurt lol)
Jenken n Fagan getting PT, Read looks real solid for a 10th, Medvedev has been sharp and Bidgood/Gerber potential depth but not holding my breath.....

If true, I'd be ok with that move as it gives us some ammo for upgrades as we approach the trade deadline.
If you look at our bottom 6, the 2 young forwards with the most upside are Read, and (of course) Hawery. Guys like Aboflan, and Van Bommel, are dependable 4th liners, work their ass off. I think they finish their OHL careers as bottom 6 players here or elsewhere.

Has some upside but right now he’s just a depth player on the knights going for 2 early round picks and a mid rounder. This is why the knights are always competitive- hunter makes smart trades like this

Could be another Brody Crane clone or he could be better.

Right now he’s reminds me of Brody Crane just because his is in the bottom six and has a great shot, but if he makes it to the top 6 someday, that will outweigh any compensation we got from Niagara.
I say he’s better and he likely gets drafted in the late rounds. Top 6 F next year and top line as a 19 yr old

So if we are adding 2 3rds and a 6th our draft cupboard would be pretty decent
