But now your future is without Dylan Larkin.

Yeah.

Like that is a huge misstep.

And again, pair it to what Carolina did.

solve the problem with the asset rather than create all these realities.

Because even if you were right, it's like, hey, okay, Queen Hughes wasn't going to sign here.

Your next reality is without Dylan Larkin.

So being right wasn't even worth it.

It was worth trying to just make the trade and solve the problem thereafter.

The tweener players are going to be very fascinating all of a sudden.

Again, we've talked about

Dock and Newhook types that Montreal trying to jump ahead and say, hey, maybe this is the guy.

But if you look at the trade market right now, there's a host of guys that you would say are tweener 2-1s or interesting bets like McTavish.

Trocek is kind of a 2-3.

Larkin and Thomas, those tweener 2-1s.

Those teams that...

had these guys and wanted to be the pillars of their franchise.

And now it's not really working out.

Where are they positioned?

And how agile are they going to be here to move off and try to create what the next team build is for their respective teams?
