Is it time to trade Burrows?

Burrows isn't getting any younger and he's making 4.5 mil just playing with the Sedins. I think he's a 3rd liner when he's not playing with the Sedins and I don't think he's worth 4.5 anymore.. He's almost as old as the Sedins and I think the Canucks could pick up a superior player in free agency with the space he gets (Morrow, Jagr etc)

Also, the Canucks would get a pretty good asset in return... whether they add and get a top 6 winger that the Canucks have always needed, or more picks and prospects to stock the cupboard.

2 years ago I wouldn't have even thought about it, but it makes a lot of sense now.

Kassian I think is ready to take his place with the Sedins and he just doesn't fit anymore with Booth still on the team.

What do you think about this?

No, but as far as we know he only gets 50 points playing with the twins. He should be evaluated on a more intrinsic level.

That doesn't mean I want him traded, but I would suggest that 4.5M X 4 years at 32 years old might be considered as a overpayment.
