That would completely solidify our top 4. Gio-Brodie Russell-OEL. And Wideman could be bumped down, while provide offensive punch on the bottom pairing. Talk about a defense corps!

But how on earth do you get the Yotes to bite on a deal for him?

I think it would take something like: Backlund + Wotherspoon. I could see the Yotes being very interested in what Backlund brings. A steep price, but you give to get, and we have even more centre depth coming up the ranks with Bennett next season.
