What would the return for Hudler have to be for you to deem it good enough that it couldn't be turned down? Say we are 3rd in the division with a 4 point cushion at the TDL... What is the trade that you would give your blessing to? Or are we 'buyers' at that point? What if we are 3rd in the division but still hovering around .500? Does that change your opinion?

I'm of the view that the long term outlook of this team is much more important than anything that will happen this year. I just don't see this team as a playoff threat, not with our goaltending. Every pick and prospect acquired will only increase our chance at future success IMO. That is the lens I see this team through.
