The Jackets perspective:

Nash is a valuable player, no doubt about it BUT the guys were got back are all very young, are all high 1st round picks and are all currently playing in the NHL. We were not going to win the cup this year but feel we can still battle for a playoff spot without Nash.

Lepisto is the 7th dmen in Phoenix and a 2012 1st means very little to me. We get back a 66OV who we can slide into the top 6 for now.

We feel Bernier has a TON of upside and will be a #1 very very soon, probably in LA this year at some point.
