I guess I am underselling Hall, but I can't even fathom some of the trade proposals for the kid. I know he is talented, but giving up Drouin, Deangelo and Sustr would be gutting to our depth, especially given how young and talented those guys are. I trust SFY more than that proposal haha.
And I think we can all agree that if we trade Vasi right now, many of us will walk away from the team for a while. Vasi is the storyline franchises dream of.
There are proposals I can see working for us, but nothing Edmonton would agree to. Carle ($ dump) + Namestnikov + Killorn + 1st is a poor man's version of what they'd be looking for. And even that offer, I think, runs the risk of making us a worse team. As much as I criticize Killorn, and as much as I think he's in play trade-wise, there's no doubt losing him would hurt our depth. It's nice to have a guy who can play all over the lineup when needed.
I read somewhere an article that questioned if we might have a rekindled interest in Justin Schultz, considering we were in the sweepstakes when he came out of college. I doubt he's a guy we'd be looking at now, but I can't help but blame Edmonton for "ruining" him a bit as a prospect. You have to assume that with better development somebody would have forced the kid to learn how to play defense by now.
