We are also severely lacking a RW one time option on our PP in which a RS player wouldn't really help with that.

I just don't agree that someone can say our biggest need is RW and that we should sell the farm (mid season) for someone who's exclusively played left wing. It's not a good gamble at all in my opinion and I think in that context it matters very much.
If we can add a left handed shooter for a moderate price? Sure. But all in / break the bank to slot a LW at RW I'm not getting. At the premium cost, you wait for the proper fit.
