Snow has less leverage if he is going to respect Hamonic's wishes. The key part of that package for me would be a willingness to move Gio. Hell I would add Hudler to that package to get it done.

Snow is the guy who moved a 1st, 2nd and Matt Moulsen for Vanek and then moved Vanek and a 5th for the equivalent of 2 2nd's later that season. It is not like you are trading with Sam Pollack here
