As much as I like byfield, no thanks. that much long term future for a contract like doughty. that would look bad quick. that would be like 1 step forward, 6 steps back.

I don’t think Kings give up Byfield, and I don’t think Ottawa would ever want Doughty.

So I am just saying, many people thought it was crazy how Montreal traded away PK for Weber and Weber was a declining asset, Well weberbis still a better defenseman at 35 than PK ever was.
Doughty is in that same category, a solid defenseman until he is 40.
This value stuff is ridiculous analytical need stuff that actually has no value.

I do agree with doughty being good for several more years. Always effective. He is too much money for melnyk.

From l. a. I don't think I trade Byfield. He has an amazing opportunity under Kopitar, and nothing coming back matches a potential 1c.

@Renidrag I agree with Doughty being good for 2-3 more years, but that doesn’t fit Ottawa’s timeline. I’d rather see him go to an immediate contender.
This trade also gives Ottawa a young Center in Byfield which doesn’t fit their needs (défense) and they give up a promising D (Brain) .
