Am I allowed to take the under on him getting injured?
Meaning the one you disagree most with.
But your whole argument is predicated on the only decision being to trade him. I mean, if that's the case, then yeah, trade him when you can get the most for him. But nothing like setting up a potentially false one-way scenario to support your position.
So winning the Cup is your threshhold for whether keeping him was wort it? I've seen different opinions on this question. What if they made the ECF? Failure? Waste of a season?
Having a team that can compete for the cup every year, is the goal. As it stands, and these are just projections, but Ive seen the cbj picked 4th in the metro. And lets be real, look at what Philly did to improve, look what Toronto did to improve, look at what Florida did to improve. The jackets will never be a legit cup contender , on a year to year basis, until they have some horses on offense that can get them there. Having the best regular season goalie in the game, probably the top, if not , one of the top core of defenseman 1-6, in the nhl, gets you projected as the 16th best team in the nhl (from a power rankings perspective ). Sure if everything breaks perfect, and our forwards all have career years, and Bob is not PLAYOFF Bob, we have a shot of possibly making some noise. But if I can get a Bogstrom from the Panthers, in a package deal, I make that deal all day long. As for the goalie position, Korpi gets a much larger workshare this year, because I need to know what we have in him, to plan for next year. Lets see what Legace can do with him.
