Yeah I have this funny feeling we will trade Kadri and he will become the next St.Louis.

I'll be in the minority here but I'll move Colborne over Kadri. We wouldn't need a big center anymore if we grabbed Staal. I'd prefer the playmaking winger at that point.

Eh I am iffy about Staal. Don't get me wrong hes an amazing player but 8 mill cap hit scares me solid. I mean if Tiny Tim is kept on LTIR and we can resign Kuli and Grabo while trading for Staal I am game. But I don't want us to screw up everything after coming so far.

if there was a clause to have to have him play, I would want, LeBlanc and Beaulieu too lolplus a first pick, just for making there team better by subtraction

I was more thinking Burke has the money to bury him and take the nice extra that may come with it….lol….not for him to play

I would definitely do that. And I don't think that value is too far off. Kadri I believe has a good amount of trade value, Luke Schenn definitely does, and MacArthur would have some as well, good contract, solid player. And then of course you would figure the Hurricanes would insist on a 1st.

I'd imagine the Hurricanes would ask for Kulemin over MacArthur if we're offering up Kadri, but if we make that Colborne then maybe we take Kulemin back out for MacArthur.

$7.4 million for this season, and 2 more. Its a complete waste. Banking on him turning it around is probably not smart, he's been on a pretty steady decline for 3 or 4 years now. Whatever Mtl would give with him better be damn good, and it better include a 1st round pick and another player we could use, and then take some salary back as well, like maybe Komisarek.

Although, the way he's been playing Komisarek is almost living up to that contract. If he keeps it up for the remainder I won't complain.

In an ideal world.

I would give up Schenn, Kadri, MacArthur and a 1st.

Iwould keep Gardiner & Colborne, even if it meant giving up more, in a package
