And I've watched about the same amount (I live in BC) including the back to back against the Canucks this weekend and I feel he would be fine. Funny how it goes, doesn't it?

The fact remains that although he wouldn't be my first choice as a number 4 defenseman, he'd be quite cheap to get and would be great to pair up with Hamrlik, and he's a right handed shot with a great shot at the point for our PP.

So I may not watch hockey, but I might know a thing or two.
...and those 8 points would offset the loss of our most skilled offensive player?

Addition by subtraction.

Kovalev + sweetener for JBo maybe, but Aucoin alone doesn't make up for Kovalev's gamebreaking ability and we don't need whatever sweetener Calgary throws into pot.

Aucoin has a good slapper, he won hardest shot no? He's a PP option, yes. As much as i'm starting to hate kovy for his inconsitency, this trade doesn't do him justice.
