I like Seabrook, but I don't think he's a beast physically. He has the most value at the blueline in my opinion and would be about the only player a team in the West might give up a quality center for. I just don't see any of the wings really landing the center the Hawks need and the way the team is constructed right now, I think a good 2 way center does more for the Hawks rather than having Suter and Seabrook and their combined cap hits.

If they could land the center a different way, I would love to see it, but I'm skeptical prospects, Kane, Sharp, Hossa, or Keith would lure a WC gm (or most gms) into giving up a good center. I would prefer to keep Keith long term anyway.

Anyway, I want the center more than I want Seabrook, and trading Brent seems like it might be one of the best of the bad options available to addressing that need.
