Was watching 2nd round games and missing my CBJ. I began to analyze some of the teams still playing, using the CBJ as a bench mark. I thought back to that stupid comment years ago by Dougie MacLean. "I wouldn't trade my entire line up for the Red Wings".
So here is the question(s);
1. Which team would you trade for all 23 players? They put on our sweaters - our guys go put on theirs. No cherry picking! You have to give up all 23 and take all 23. Who's line up do you want?
..and then.....
2. Which prospect pool would you trade in total? Again, no cherry picking. PLD goes, and everybody included in the "50 limit" contract, plus draft rights. Essentially, that is player #24 through #50 (or however many contracts we have right now).
..and finally......
3. Which coach, staff and front office and media would you trade, in total? I'm talking everybody that draws a paycheck from the CBJ. That's JD, Jarmo, Torts, asst. coaches, video staff, trainers, strength, Rimer and Jody. Is there anybody in total that you would do the wholesale swap?
I'll let this go a little bit before revealing my answers.
