Necas, Bean and Niederreiter for Gaudreau and Bennett.
Gaudreau for Tomasino, Tolvanen and a pick.

Like the Carolina deal, hate the Nashville deal. Carolina provides us solid depth and some good potential to improve the lineup in multiple areas. It is a right now and a futures trade. The Nashville deal is all futures and that is loaded with too much risk. I would only be dealing Gaudreau for pros, nit kids still in junior. There's a big jump from junior to the pros and scoring exploits in junior do not always translate. I like guys that have proven they can score at the pro level first, so a deal around Tomasino as the principal scares the bejesus out of me. We need a proven quantity that can contribute right now for Gaudreau, and then some promise down the line.
