I wouldn't trade gio or hamonic, or the farm pieces. That leaves hamilton and Brodie, who IMO both have more value than Marner. If calgary does decide to make a splash, it's from a position of strength.
Reilly -Zaitsev
Gardiner- Carrick
Hainsey- Borgman
Polak

Is their D. What would be better?

Reilly- Hamilton
Gardiner- Zaitsev
Hainsey - Carrick
Xtra Borgman RHD, Polak RHD
Or

Reilly - Zaitsev
Brodie - Carrick
Gardiner - Borgman
Hainsey - Polak


I think it's obviously the first set of D pairings has more promise
But the thought of losing Hamilton for Marner makes me want to puke.

A bonafide top pair Right Shot Dman who "skates like a deer" for a light weight but speedy Right winger who hasn't been able to solidify a top 6 spot on a team where spots are up for grabs?

No thanks all over trading Hamilton. I would do Brodie though in a heart beat.
