Yeah I know. Didn't mean to misrepresent. But this reason is the most important why they can't make that call.
Until Patrick proves that he is fine long-term (which hasn't happened yet), and proves that he is a legitimate top 6 player (which hasn't happened yet), it would be quite stupid to trade a proven guy like Couturier and expect him to step up. Not to say it couldn't happen, because GMs do stupid things like that far more often than they should..
