With the future uncertain with Weber and Suter, I don't see the Preds moving their bluechip D, especially considering he's been our third best D this season.

Suter and Weber aren't going anywhere, but understandable
Replace Josi with Blum or even Ellis and I'm on board. Not getting rid of Josi. We need him.
Both SHOULD be top 4 defenseman in their prime correct? Also, what is the need for the Preds this deadline? I looked at your lineup and looks like you could use a third line LWer or Centerman...

Yes, all three will be top 4 for sure.
We could really use a true top 3 forward, but those arent availible too often. Okposo could play on our 2nd line and bump others to the 3rd.
Josi has been the third best defenseman behind Weber and Suter on a rich, defensive Nashville sqaud.
I'd rather see Moulson,Grabner or Nino dealt before KO.Heck.Snow's got a lot of cheap,quality propects and another potentiakl top 5 lottery pick to package.
Not sure why? I feel like what you see is what you get, 2nd line winger...
Maybe because unlike Moulson,Grabner,Parenteau or Neilsen,Okposo does the dirty work in the isles top 6,fighting along the boards and behind the net for loose pucks,going hard to the net.You know,the stuff many fans don't appreciate,but teammates and coaches do.

I wouldn't include Ellis in that deal. He can be use to bring over someone have higher value. If it wasn't for his size, he would have gone higher in the 09 draft, that was the main concern Scouts said about him. He's got value. I would trade Blum though.
if some of you guys have watched josi like i have, i think most would be dying to get him. he has the best +/- in takeaways and giveaways since being with the preds for defenseman.. better than suter or weber. seriously a stud in the making.
Isles have invested in Okposo. They also have young players they like being groomed for the blueline. If the Isles were to acquire a blueliner, I'd think they'd be interested in an established player. If they were to go the youngster route, they'd go for a dice roll they could get cheaply.
