"Hey Brad. I would love Backlund but you guys play a more wide open game where defenseman are allowed to join the rush at their leisure, which results in offensive numbers that may not be replicated on my defensive team."
"Instead of a 1st round draft pick, I will offer you a 2nd round pick instead. The trades of Glencross and Hudler both indicate that your players' offensive numbers may be inflated in a more open style"
