Not going to comment on the trades because I know a lot of people are going to be focussing on that.

I love the Sedins-Eriksson line. Assuming the trade did happen though, I doubt it would help us advance further into the playoffs. Yes, Sedins-Eriksson dominated in the World Championships but that was on larger European ice where the game is focused on SKILL and not HITTING/CHECKING/INTIMIDATION.

I doubt that Sedins-Eriksson will be much more successful in the playoffs than Sedins-Burrows. They might be better, but not by a lot.

And the defensive core worries me...especially with our injury history.

So Montreal gives up one of their better prospects for a 5th, yet another small centre (which they don't need), and a small centre they can pick up for nothing?

You realize Montreal already has lots of centres.

Would you trade Kassian for a 5th rounder, Dubnyk, and Ryan Jones?

Dallas will not take our overpriced castoffs for a productive player, especially to Vancouver.

Edler, two 1sts, and a 2nd would get the discussion started.
