There is no need to give away assets to get Hamonic. Our D core is set. You could argue "never have too much of a good thing" but it actually might screw up the cap structure...already lots of $ committed to the blueline.
Yeah, I'm fine rolling with our current top 3 Dmen and filling out the other 3 with cheaper options. Especially considering I'm one of those that thinks we have some really decent D prospects coming up through the system right now.
