Yes, you are somewhat wrong because VAN values Jensen really highly. Great example of using draft picks properly, though, because if the Pens really wanted a Jensen or Rattie or Rakell or Brett Ritchie, they could have had them instead of Morrow in the draft.
Also, Vancouver, in the last 2 years, has drafted Brendan Gaunce and Bo Horvat. So their long-term weakness at the centre position has been addressed, and in the interim, Santorelli has been really good. I'm not saying definitively that there's no trade to be had there, but it does make it less likely. Also, while I like Kassian, and while I'm not averse to trading Sutter, I would want more of a sure-thing than Kassian for Sutter. (Kassian for Samuelsson++ or a 1st rounder or something, maybe, but for Sutter I would want someone like a Jacob Silfverberg, even if we had to add).
AND, IF we trade Sutter, Jeffrey has to be the guy to take his place. So throwing Jeffrey in with Sutter creates a massive hole for us at centre. I do believe Jeffrey has the ability to be a very good 3rd line centre, which is why I'm open to trading Sutter for the right return, and vice-versa, but we can't trade both of these guys. Our other centre prospects are just WAY too far away and there's not a sure thing amongst that bunch.
Ok, that's a HORRIBLE proposal. I think Kulemin could be a good fit here, but not a snowball's chance in hell is he worth Brandon Sutter, especially when he's going to be a UFA at the end of the year! Are you on crack?
Also, I'm all for trading Despres, but ONLY if we get a BLUE-CHIP prospect. Samuelsson is a nice player, but he projects more as a really good 3rd liner, or perhaps a decent 2nd liner, and is NOWHERE close to helping out this team now. He'll need at least a year or 2 in the AHL before he's ready, whereas Despres could either garner us an NHL ready player, a better prospect, or could play in Orpik or Niskanen's spot if the Pens had the balls to trade one of those guys. If Despres goes, it should be for an a guy like Etem, Silfverberg, Smith-Pelley, etc... And I would rather add, even a lot if necessary (i.e. a 1st round pick, etc.) to a package to get that special winger that we need.
