He's one of the only d-men we have who can provide offense and actually get their shot through.

 

If we should trade any d-man we should trade Edler or Tanev...

 

Stecher's going to be putting up 45+ points in his prime imo, kid is special.

Exactly, trade players that have upside but are close to their down side. In other words, players that have reached their peak but are on their downward side...similar to Eriksson who has been one or two years on the downside...Dallas maximized his value by trading for Seguin. 

 

Do not trade Stecher...he is part of the rebuild that makes sense.

Typically, if someone is willing to overpay with something you need then you have to consider your options. The big exception is a recently signed FA. If you want to keep getting good players to sign here in FA, you can't trade them the minute you get them. Anything short of a legit, solid, young 1C or 1D should be rejected in this scenario, and since we aren't going to get such an offer, there is no way we trade him.

With this team struggling for goals Benning was on record recently saying that teams are calling him about prospects, including Juolevi and Stecher but Benning rejected the offers.

 

While along with others I would love to have more young defencemen on our roaster, this team needs scoring more than anything. Maybe now is the time to get maximum value for Stecher as so many people around the league are noticing his play. We can get a lot for him, and I think it could be a great move considering we got him pretty much free.

 

Thoughts are welcomed!

How about we trade Tanev, who is a proven (one of the best) shut down d in the league?  He has the greatest value of our d, and could (most likely) return a 23 or under top six forward - ex: RNH

If they traded Stecher, that would really send the signal to the fans to not expect a rebuild. It's not like it would be a better result getting someone younger. Plus what would that tell any future signees by trading him less than a year after he signed when he did nothing wrong.
