Edmonton is finding out how hard it is to win with just youngsters. There has to be some veteran balance in the lineup.
We need to keep the older guys that are good: Yandle/Hanzal/obviously Doan/Boedker, etc...
What we need is two centers. I believe we've got a clone of ROR (with better offense) in Dvorak, which means we still need 1 more. Especially given that Hanzal can't play more than 60 games in a season.
Trading Vermette/Z now before the deadline for lesser value to begin losing more games is imperative. We could have the 'quickest' of turn-a-rounds if we were lucky enough to land McDavid or Eichel. I want a 13% chance at landing them rather than a 7% chance. Unless Uncle Gary has already locked us into the top spot...we're losing our best shot at 'ever' getting the 1 true 'superstar' this franchise needs.
