Agree. I think that’s what I was getting at w/ the last “challenge trade” thought … but I find I’m not great at explaining things.

That’d be fun! Yeah, I kinda regret deciding not to put that in there. Oh, well.

Maybe they are making room for a bigger signing?

It’s a ‘philosophical trade’ as well. Dane Richards is more of a specialist, and Le Toux is more well-rounded, but Richards can fit into a role really well. Sometimes Le Toux struggles when he’s not a primary option.
