I agree. If were going to be giving up a bunch of assets I rather get a younger player who can play solid hockey for us for the next decade. At 30 Seabrook is far from old but I'd feel a lot more comfortable with a guy like Hamilton. With Hamilton there is the risk he doesn't quite pan out as you hope but there is also risk with Seabrook that he starts to regress in a few years. You'd likely give up pretty similar packages for both.
