    TLDR: Their model said that for this year’s draft, Hawks got surplus value back, even if on average the Islanders would have had to add a 5th round pick to make it even value.

    >“It’s actually been kind of funny to watch all the discourse around that trade,” he said. “It’s been hilarious, actually.”

    I’m imagining KD having a good laugh at some of the insane hot takes and using a burner account to reply to the craziest ones.

    >“You want to understand what’s motivating a player, whether they’re playing in Vancouver, Toronto, Stockholm or St. Petersburg,” Davidson said. “You want to get to know them and what their motivations are, what their ambitions are, no matter where they’re playing.

    C’mon, Ivan, tell KD your motivation, ambition and dream is to lift the cup with Bedard.
