There's been a lot of talk on these boards about the need for Garth to finally pull off a trade of real significance. Without focusing on who we would get in return, if Garth finally pulls the trigger, who do you see as the most likely player(s) or top prospect(s) being dealt??
Considering our only real needs are a true front line winger to play with Tavares and a top pairing D-man with the ability to take over for Streit in years to come, if Garth is going to make a significant trade, he may have to deal a package of players. If he does put together a package, what one or two player(s)/prospect(s) do you see as the most likely to go???
Before I get jumped on, let me just say, I fully expect Garth to stay the course and not make a significant move unless we are out of it approaching the trade deadline. if that is the case, perhaps Garth finally decides enough is enough and makes some trade deadline deals... Streit and Lubo are obvious trade deadline targets......
If a trade is made sooner rather then later, at this point, the obvious choices would be Okposo (because of his play), and Nino (because of his ridiculous trade demand)........ I really like Bailey and I'm hoping this is the year he takes a big step forward, but it there is a significant trade, I wouldn't be surprised to see him go. I would hate to see Bailey go, and as far as prospects, I would hate to see Brock Nelson go. I think he's gonna be the real deal! I'd rather trade Nino.
Thoughts?
