Dimitri Filipovic is joined by Thomas Drance and Kyle Dubas to talk about how the combination of how increased financial flexibility for teams and a weaker UFA player class affected the trade market this summer, the unique challenges of retooling in the cap growth era, learning from past mistakes, getting the most out of the AHL as a developmental league when you have a heavy volume of young players coming in, and how the process of player evaluation has evolved over the years.
