If You Had To Trade One Who Would It Be, Hemsky or Gagner?

[Koto]

if hes going to be so damn good can we just trade the pick for a damn good defenceman instead.


if that isnt possible then the "pick BPA, trade to address needs/balance roster" theory is dead.

and if that is the case...you'd best be picking players that actually fit your roster.

We already have one playing overseas.

And like someone else has already posted on here, with Yak on the team, its now a different acronym...

Hall
Yakupov
Paajarvi
Eberle

which seems more fitting nowadays.

No one should be untouchable, but we need to stop thinking picks and start thinking size with skill. 5 on 5 containment will be what makes RNH, Eberle, and Yakupov scary.

Not sold on RNH to be quite honest.

Hemsky every day of the week. Guy could care less. Trade him and get a guy with compete.
