If they're high on strammel, they would take strammel.

Otherwise, I think Hunter Haidt is probably the next guy there.

He's shown, like we talked about, I think, yesterday, he looks like he sort of belongs in the NHL.

He's still young, and that's a center.

It's a developing center for a team that's looking to retool if it's in their wording for New York.

And then you might have to throw in another prospect who is above average, but maybe not a top-tier guy.

And then...

There's a potential of having to throw in like a third round pick or something like that just as a sweetener.

I think that if you're looking at Trochek versus Robert Thomas, it's probably 2027 first.

Jesper Wallstead, you're going to have to offset some caps.

So that's where maybe a Ryan Hartman comes into play.

and then maybe a mid-level prospect.

My issue is that you just don't want to go overboard to where I'm okay if you're saying, and they have by going out and trading for Quinn Hughes, that this is the season to push all in.

But if it doesn't work out, I don't want you holding just your underwear at the end of the season.

Oh, God.

My initial reaction to that is you're off.

And I say you're off because of maybe three reasons that I can think of right away.

One, you have other center and you've been waiting for a center forever.

We haven't had a center in this state in a long time.

But developing a center, you have a few that are showing promise underneath you.
