Uh yes, you can. That's what we are theoretically arguing here - his realistic value. You can state that the lockout will reduce his value, and that his value will be lowered (say Kadri to Ashton) or alternatively feel that it will increase his value. I feel differently and making my case why. Theoretical arguments based on practical realities is sort of the whole point of this forum .

As an example - if a 3rd round pick was to be originally included in a deal, that should now be upgraded to a 2nd.
