I'm almost feeling like it has to be a given, if he continues this play.
At this rate he's bound to fetch an Iginla or Bouwmeester type return near the deadline. Throw in the fact he's always performed well in the playoffs and I can see a lot of teams showing interest.
You could always potentially resign him come summer, although usually a team ponying up that kind of return has the sense that they can resign him. Not always the case though; see Iginla and Pittsburgh.
