I think the important thing to remember is that we DON'T HAVE TO TRADE Gaudreau now. The idea would be to move him now if it's a slam dunk win for us. Not simply taking the best package available. Some of these offers are widely mediocre and in such cases, we'd be better off trying to squeeze Hall in and go all in for a season or two.

I'm firmly in the "trade Gaudreau this offseason" camp, but only if we come away clear winners (ie future #1 C as part of the package or a top 10 pick that would net us an elite, blue chip prospect with a VERY high floor)
