[QUOTE=New Era;4609178]Sven is still a good prospect and has a lot of potential. He is not doing anything to make other teams lineup and ask for him in a deal, but if dangled he would still be a valuable commodity. He is likely viewed as a prospect that needs a change of scenery and a fresh start elsewhere. I would think he would be a guy that is included in a deal with one of the veterans to get a real good prospect on the verge of playing full time in the NHL, like a Larsson or Toffoli.
What exactly does Toffoli bring that is so outstanding? His points and games played (with a better supporting cast) are the same as Sven. He is also 6 months older. Every time I see stuff like this I wonder if its not people (not saying you - just your comment was the first I saw in this thread) assuming someone else's "toy" is better. From what I have watched Toffoli's upside isn't as high as Sven's. He has scored a few more goals but nothing spectacular and his skating is definitely a step below. If he has such high upside and ability then why is LA always looking for a scoring winger heading into the playoffs?
