Because the Florida rats are actually good at hockey and those 3 guys I mentioned are currently 6/7 dman on non playoff teams.Why
They are exactly what we need to keep the Florida rats at bay.

I sure hope Tre doesn’t move Benoit. He’s your ideal third pairing dman and still young. Hopefully he found a home here and re-signs with term.Lily is their only RHS until now and next year if Boosh walks. If Tre wants to use another bullet, he could trade for another RHD with term and move Brodie or Benoit.
Brodie would be the guy to trade if I was 100% convinced Benoit can do it in the playoffs.I sure hope Tre doesn’t move Benoit. He’s your ideal third pairing dman and still young. Hopefully he found a home here and re-signs with term.

Bjugstad would be nice but Kunin is crap, and I wouldnt want to push Lilly outta the lineup, he is better than both Dumba/BushKnies Matthews Marner

No more than a Rielly - Lyubushkin pairing. Might as well load up on tough D and shelter the crap out of Rielly.Rielly - Dumba pairing would be a disaster.
I just realized the "out" part... Who the f*** are we trading Liljegren and Robertson for in this scenarioI don't love this lol.
Jarnkrok is better than Kunin.
Dumba isn't very good anymore.
Not sure why we're trading Liljegren and Robertson if we're getting nobody with term.
Lyubushkin is better defensively than Dumba. I wouldn’t mind Dumba on the third pair with Benoit to be honest but in terms of a fit with Rielly, Lyubushkin is better.No more than a Rielly - Lyubushkin pairing. Might as well load up on tough D and shelter the crap out of Rielly.
Sean Walker is one of the better dmen on the market.
What about our 1st and Timmins for Walker and Columbus' 2nd, which Philly owns? I dont know if theyd bite but we only move down 15-ish spots in the draft.
Imagining a bigger deal, where we somehow get both Walker and Laughton, for our 1st + Robertson + would be a dream
I'd call Boosh emergency depth... the clear upgrade is still a partner for Rielly... and then Boosh will be where he belongs, in the 7 spot.I was onboard for Walker pre Lyubushkin, but now not sure where he’d fit? Lyubushkin, Liljegren and McCabe on the right side. Rielly, Brodie and Benoit on the left. Unless you’re getting a clear cut upgrade like Hanifin to Brodie, don’t see any other moves on the backend until the off-season.

Dumba sucks……Dumba didn't look to bad
Nick Bjustad
For a little dog he’s got both bark and bite, but not interested……..Can we get Sam carrick too? He's a badass
That's where I become a bit iffy about this trade. Why pay a 3rd and 6th for a 7th dman. That should be done with throwing over a 5th at most or something. It just becomes Rittich, Hutton and Nash all over again. Paying for depth/insurance to not play.The fit is definitely not as dire. I would assume if everyone is healthy that Lyubushkin would be out of the lineup at that point, or rotating in and out with Liljegren or Benoit.
Rielly - Walker
McCabe - Brodie
Benoit - Liljegren
Giordano - Lyubushkin
Walker to me is definitely pretty underrated. They are looking for a lot for him and the Flyers are in a playoff spot so it's hard to see them give him up, especially with a bunch of injuries they recently had.
Walker + Laughton would be something the Leafs would love I think. I don't know if the price would be good though.

Getting Laughton at 50% for 2 more years plus Walker would cost way more than thatTo Toronto-
Walker
Laughton 50% retained
To Philly-
1st Round Pick
Reaves
Jarnkrok
