Marchand is a perennial 20 goal scorer, and will be a consistent 20-30-50 guy for the next decade. He's FAR more valuable than Smith. Far, far more.
(and it pains me to say that, because Marchand is a POS, but dude has skill that can't be denied. Dude's the only Bruin I "dislike" as a fan.)
Paille & Campbell are dime-a-dozen, IMO. Good players to have when you have them, everyone loves a good lunchpail player, but never guys you'd say "they are too valuable to trade!!!" about.
Anyways, I have a party waiting for me, so if you'll excuse me, I'm going to get ripped. Adios!
And miss an internet debate with me? BrawlFan?!? Alright, suit yourself.
But my point is that if you trade Smith we get softer and would need to replace him. He's on a good contract and you may as well keep him and try and pry someone else.
At the end of the day tho everyone is expendable so maybe Hemsky is the way. I would just hate to turn into the late 90's/early 00 senators who couldnt stop Gary friggin Roberts year after year.
I mean Alyn friggin McCaully killed us one year.
