You're either overrating Landeskog who looks like no more than a great top six guy (but certainly not a bonafide first liner) or underrating Brodie who looks like a great top 3 guy (but certainly not a bonafide first pairing). These things have very comparable value.
Look at +/- all you want, but don't forget the fact that Brodie has double the points of Larsson (160 to 80) with only 60 more games played (380 to 320). They play different games, and if your best argument is that Larsson during an up year with top pairing minutes is just as good as Brodie during a down year playing 2nd pairing minutes, then I think you're accidentally making the wrong argument.

Now youre just taking pieces of other peoples posts to make them your own..
Is Sakic > Chiarelli as a GM? Comparing the Hall situation and comparing the Landeskog situation are two very different scenarios.
Its not as simple as hopw some of you are trying to make it. Hall fell out of favor. Landeskog is an assett that would kick start a Avs rebuild.
Sakic would not take Brodie for Landeskog and then add to that.. that is what was said pages ago and what I originally replied to.
