I would trade Brodie to bring in Hoffman, straight across. I think to win a cup, you need a goalie, you need to score, and you need a couple horses who can play 25 minutes while the other four guys scrap and claw their way to the next shift.

In the playoffs, you need offensive weapons. The deeper a team goes, the better all teams get defensively anyway. You need players that can put the puck in the net. The margin of victory is likely to be one goal - you need as many options to get that one goal as you can.

It would suck to see Brodie go, but for a 30 goal scorer, under contract, you can plug in on any of the top three lines?

Do it.
So you want Bartkowski in the top 6 and Kulak playing top 4?

What is with all the trade Brodie proposals? Do people realize what happens when you trade him?

and no, Kylington or Wotherspoon are not going to step in and replace Brodie.

Top 4 defensemen are premium assets. They should only be traded for top centremen. Stop proposing to trade them for one dimensional wingers.
