As good as Yakupov is, we're close to being an elite team. It's not the time to trade multiple key players who are on very good contracts for one guy. I'd rather go hard after Parise or Suter, and if Suter, then I'm sure we can offer DZ+ for a young-ish goal scoring winger on a good contract (Ryan, Pavelski) or see if the price for Nash and his huge contract came back to a reasonable value (meaning no DZ, Stepan, McD or Kreider). To be more clear, I'd only trade DZ for a winger on a good contract. I'm not giving him up for a 7.8 winger who usually isn't even a point a game player.

Pavelski is a center isn't he?
