Ya, Wideman would be a second pairing guy and Russell would slide down and be an ideal #5. It would be great to get someone to either be a top pairing guy or a really good second pairing guy.
As for the trade with the Hurricanes for Skinner....hec no! We'd have to give up Granlund and a 2nd???? Skinner is a cap dump at this point, the kid plays so scared that he isn't really productive anymore. If it wasn't for Semin, Skinner would probably have the worst contract on that team.
