Schenn + Simmonds + 2nd for Gaborik
I would be okay with that deal. The team will take 2 steps back this year in order to take 4-5 steps forward in the next couple of years.
Simmonds is a tougher, more aggressive version of Dubinsky. Who wouldnt take that?

I would not take that deal. Schenn is gonna be good but it's still possible he ends up an NHL player with a 60 pt upside which isn't really good value for a player like Gaborik. I cannot share your optimism. I need to see Jack Johnson or Dustin Brown in there (established players) somewhere if I'm dealing Gaborik. Schenn as the key piece in the deal is not enough for me.

Gabby, Sauer, Grachev.
Doughty, Schenn, Teubert, #1 2011, #2 2011, #2 2012

hahaha, you are under valuing Doughty here. There is no way we could get that deal. At the very least, those draft picks would have to be going the other way. Doughty > Gaborik. Schenn > Sauer, maybe even Sauer + Grachev (i.e. I don't think you could get Schenn at that price). + Gaborik supposed be enough impetus to move Doughty AND Schenn? GTFO! (I mean this in the friendliest of ways)
