Sutter badly outperformed Goc in the postseason. I'm fine dealing Sutter, but if he'll commit longterm, Id rather have him. I think he has that extra gear offensively for the playoffs. Whereas Goc can't be relied upon to help anchor your secondary scoring.
And Spaling is a much better player than Megna at this point. Megna hasn't shown he's an NHL regular yet. Intriguing upside, but that's all for now.
Sutter is a better player than Goc but how hard is it to outperform someone when their linemates are Gladams? We saw during the regular season what that did to Sutter's production.
We aren't getting a top 6 winger without moving a good NHL player. I have my doubts they will move Martin, Scuderi and Dupuis have little trade value, so that leaves Sutter.
