At the 2025 deadline, he can get 3d party retention for a 5th rounder, making his salary not much of an issue, and while he doesn't put up numbers, middle six centers tend to have value.
Again, setting a reserve value of an early 3d isn't exactly a sky high valuation.
I agree its not much but hes not very good and your paying a 5th to get him to 2.2.
Last year at the deadline
Nyquist at 2.75 for a 5th
Lazar at 1 mllion for a 4th
Namestinkov at 1.25 went for a 4th
Sundqvist at 775k went for a 4th
I do fully admit I have not seen much of him so I could be off but they way hes talked about doesnt seem like he has any value. *Besides from you*
