Which way? Both are fine players, but Raymond is certainly proven. He is coming off of a 31 goal 72 point season, with clutch play for the Wings. Fantilli is a few years younger and 59 goals behind him. Based on potential, no way I trad Raymond for Fantilli. I like Fantilli. He was a great pick and could be the Jackets future #1 centerman. Raymond IS the Wings top line right winger for the next decade.
Have to factor where the teams are at. CBJ still building their club so while Raymon is clearly the proven commodity the jacket would rather continue to bet on fantilli becoming the player they hoped. He plays the more valuable position of C and is still growing into his 6’2 frame which is 3 inches taller than Raymond.

No slight on Raymond, solid young winger, but the BJs wouldn't entertain this trade. If Fantilli asked for a trade, sure, but he's more or less the future in Columbus.
He all but asked to be drafted by Columbus. So it only makes sense that the franchise who has been trying to get rid of the stigma that nobody wants to play here, trades away the franchise piece who asked to come to Columbus weeks after losing the biggest name to ever sign here in FA to a terrible tragedy.

Locked. Seems like the consensus is no from Columbus Fans and a lot of neutral fans.
