I would like to see Glencross traded only if its for a 1st round pick (or very early 2nd round) or one of those Pittsburg top D prospects. Shoot for the moon, there is really no need to trade him with the West being so tight. I actually think he's a pretty big part of this team and plays a really important role (i.e. eats up important minutes) and even if this is a position of org depth, our minor league team is also in a playoff battle and don't want to deplete their roster either.

Is a 2nd or mid round pick really worth losing a potential playoff birth for both our team and our AHL team?
