I don’t think they should be dipping into the very few assets they have

Yeah, that's the biggest selling point on Raddysh (aside from how good he was last season). Getting "creative" with trades on the type of players we need usually means sending your best assets away. What's a bigger disaster? Signing Raddysh for 8 million and having him be a #3-4 instead of a #1-2, or trading our best assets (1st, Cowan, etc) for a young RFA defender available and have that player not take the next step? (Zellweger, etc). Keeping in mind of course that the RFA in question will likely have a similar AAV to Raddysh, immediately after the trade.

Tampa has been able to be creative with their blueline because it had Hedman, McDonagh, Cernak, and Sergachev anchoring it. It's easy to take creative ass swings on Raddysh, D'Astous, etc and even trade Sergachev for Moser when you have Hedman-McDonagh-Cernak around.

We just don't have that.

Seriously, a Carolina win would confuse the shit out of their little reptile brains that all of the simple narratives come from.

- Can't give it to the goalie, he's apparently just had another nervous breakdown and facing 12 shots a night or some shit really wasn't impressive either
- Taylor Hall and Jackson Blake have had the quietest PPG playoff runs anyone has had in living memory and have barely impacted the finals...those are Carolina's leading scorers. Ehlers has been more impactful, but not really the mold of a Conn Smythe winner.
- Ghost is the only defender within screaming distance of the conversation and lol, they're not voting for a 3rd pairing PP QB

Not gonna lie, it would be kid of hilarious for Mitch to go pointless tonight, with only one secondary assist over his final 3 games, and them still giving him the Conn Smythe.

Howden!

But i can't see a knight winning it. It would have to go to game 7 for that to be realistic
