Absolutely. It's because he is boring that we under appreciate him. IF (and we don't) had a younger prospect/player ready to step into a number 4/5 roll (sadly Valimaki was supposed to be this player) than I could see trading him for a like player of his age and better calibre forward, but at this time our prospects are forward heavy, and I think we hope that 2 of Pelletire/Zary/Coronato take the steps of becoming a middle six with top 6 potential.
Our wild card is still Dube where if he can continue his production from the second half of the season with new opportunities presented in our rearrangement of our top six, then it would be silly to move a D man.
