If the speculated deal of JG and a 2nd for TK and a 5th has any merit, I would go for it. Factor in the cap savings (more cap space to address other areas of improvement), age and contract term, this seems like a sensible trade to me.
If JG doesn't/can't find his upside here, then it is time to move on.

JG is one side of the issue perhaps, but he's also a victim of it too. Whoever comes in is still going to be skating up the ice with Sean and Ritchie or whoever else they slot in there. The offensive woes aren't likely to explode in our favor are they?
