Prompt 1

The worst trade, or in this case pair of trades, that I can remember Chicago making occurred prior to s69 and then two months later after the season ended. The first trade was Chicago receiving Slavakov Vladimirashenko in exchange for a S71 first round pick. Vladimirashenko played the season for the Syndicate and ended up with 1684 TPE, his third highest career total. After the season ended, he was promptly traded back to the Pride in another trade. This time the Pride received the same player again, Slavakov Vladimirashenko, but this time in exchange for a S71 second round pick. Thus, the final trade ended up being 1 season of Vladimirashenko playing for the Syndicate in exchange for a pick to upgrade 1 round higher in the same draft for the Pride. Maybe it was all an elaborate scheme to get BFine in the Chicago locker room since he's just that great to have around, which in that case the trade would be worth it, but from a purely on-ice perspective, dropping one round in the draft could potentially result in hundreds of quality games lost for the franchise due to the difference between a first and second round pick.
