Agree with most in this thread, which is why I listed them:
1) Sharp
2) Iginla
3) Vrbata
Playoffs is just a different animal and guys like Vrbata are maybe better fits if you are acquiring a guy in the summer, a guy who can give you a consistent season of decent offensive production. Those days appear to be gone for Iginla (though there is something to be said for the team he plays for hurting him) and maybe for Sharp too.
However, come playoff time, give me the gritty guy who has scored in the past. I also think the playoffs are where we are going to get the real Troy Brouwer.
If we're going big game hunting, then obviously Landeskog or Duchene, hell even Eberle (feel gross a little) would be a target, but it better not be an overpay.
