It's not that simple. Maybe he would, but he's a getting a signal that neither of them are looking to sign with us.If poile is ready to give up a first for guys like goose or Hartman. Then why not just add a guy like tolvanen or fabbro and get someone like stone or panarin rather than a Hartman or goose?
I have to think Poile is exploring other options too. I mean players under contract like Palmieri, Kreider, Toffoli or even Hall. He's probably been in touch with Sabres asking what it would take to get Skinner if they're too far out of WC spot at trade deadline.
Sometimes you guys make it sound like he's not doing anything or didn't do anything. I'm sure he's in constant talks with other GMs and him not doing anything might be a sign that he's not giving an inch in those negotiations rather than giving up more than he wanted to close a deal.
