2010/11 - Finished with 69 points, on pace for 72 points (8th best LW in NHL)
2011/12 - Finished with 49 points, on pace for 63 points (29th best with 29 points, would be 15th best with 63 points)

What I see is that he's been a top 20 LW in the NHL in terms of putting up points for the last 3 years. That's not easily replaceable.

I do not think anyone is really saying he is easily replaceable, I am just personally hoping they go all Ottawa Senators on this thing and trade almost everyone of value for picks and prospects.
