I get you, but let's be realistic here... Duchene is not happening, and I don't see any other number one center being moved.
Hanzal OTOH is something real , the guy is getting moved for sure...
So even if it's not optimal it may be the best solution...
If our only option is Hanzal, I'd rather sit on my hands and bolster our prospect pool.
Add other assets to bargain when an actually worthwhile trade shows up.
I'm serious. Hanzal does nothing for us. It's throwing assets into the fire. Can anyone honestly say we'd be any closer to the cup by adding Hanzal? If the answer to that question is no, as it should be, then why even bother?
Sometimes, the best moves are the ones you don't make. I sure as hell would rather have Debrincat and Girard in the pipeline than Shaw making an ass out of himself on the ice 90% of the time on a bloated contract.
