I agree. I like our top 3 centers. Dubi can swap w/ Anisimov if we lose him, but nobody on the team as it currently stands can replace Stepan on the 2nd. Only way I'd be content with moving derek is if we can get another center that can handle that position involved-- hags is a tough move, but i'd accept it because we'd more than likely be swapping a winger for a winger and our top two lines have competent centers to work with.
to be honest the more time passes the more content i would be without a big name in the offseason. latendresse would be great if he's of good value/short deal. guy has something to prove to himself... but being that injury prone he might not fit in this team (still.. likely cheap).
basically as it sounds our only two major options are nash and ryan... both asking an arm and a leg-- though neither happy in their organization. i think ryan is more likely to be moved because of the cap situation over there, but nash is not happy by any means. either we get them at our offer or we back off and get some 20 goal guys.
jagr would be interesting, but i don't think he would want back in this organization.
