I'm not sure I'd add much to get Eriksson. His numbers have trailed off since he came from Dallas. Maybe a 2nd or one of Golo/Prout? Maybe Leopold?
Rumor: Colorado, Boston, Rangers looking at Atkinson

Same, because none of those blueliners listed have the value of a 2nd round pick.

It's a good situation to be in for us with Boston, at least. Cam offers them the chance to load up on scoring threats at minimal cost. We're also not in the position to be "forced" to trade him.
If this trade happens it's very likely to be for an above market value return.

Doesn't surprise me that he's got good corsi, he takes an unbelievable amount of shots for a player that has the goal/point totals he has.
2012-13 he was 4th on the team in SoG. 2013-14 and 2014-15 he's 2nd on the team in SoG, currently 2 shots behind Johansen for the team lead this year.
Where does he rank on the team in shooting percentage? 8th, 12th, and 10th respectively.
Thats the difference between Johansen and Cam (besides size obviously) Cam takes shots from every where, where as Johansen usually takes the high percentage shots, mostly because he can get there with ease. I do like sticking Cam with Johansen and Jenner if hes stil around when Jenner gets back.

Unfortunately, I fear if/when we trade him, he'll use it as motivation and switch that trend and become a 30 goal scorer.
Could Cam put up 30 if he was on our top line all season? It would be interesting to see.

I'm not so sure. Two streaky players, Eriksson has a good all around game but costs a lot more, and is UFA after next year.

Great idea. An overpaid winger with a chronic medical condition whose play has plummeted over the past couple of years.
We're all out of roster space for ex-Boston wingers with chronic medical issues who's play has plummeted.
Why not just hold on to Atkinson until the offseason and then move him? I don't think trading him to Boston is a solution at all, they won't be willing to send back a player to replace him, and its not like we need more future prospects or picks at this moment.
A team like Chicago could have A LOT of interest in Cam once the playoffs are over. They will be strapped by the cap, and he's cost controlled for the foreseeable future. Why not package him and Anisimov for Patrick Sharp? Chicago is also going to be in the market for a 2C, too. This trade could work out well for both sides. Then re-sign Letestu, let him and Wennberg battle it out for the 3C spot.
Top 9 would look something like this...
Jenner-Johansen-Sharp
Foligno-Dubinsky-Hartnell
Calvert-Letestu-Wennberg

...at an increased salary, laying out additional assets to get him, and dealing with the reality of having just acquired a depreciating asset.
