Trading Brodie after this season would be equivalent to the Blackhawks trading away Brandon Saad in 2014 because Saad was a year away from free agency. Then maybe they don't win the cup in 2015.

You don't break up top pairs or top lines on top teams. If we hit a cap crunch there are a lot of names we should be looking to move before Brodie, even if the return is lesser or even negative. If we have to package a Dube with a Stone or Neal it still makes more sense than moving Brodie.
