Basically we need a ready or near-ready RW youngster that can play top six. We are woefully thin on the right side, and Russell is for all intents and purposes our last best bet at riding the trade winds for that kind of asset. There is no doubt BT will take a RW prospect he feels confident with by this time tomorrow, and if not that, then he'll flip him for picks.
The most foolish move at this point would be to hold on to him - that serves no purpose at this point in the season and where we stand.
