That's the thing. I like Rossi and think he could be an important player for the Flames, but given that he is disgruntled and the Wild obviously don't see the upside in him if they're demoting him in the playoffs, why would anyone pay a premium?
Guerin: "Hey, here's a player we don't think is as great as his production suggests, but we still want the same value back as if we didn't think that."
I don't blame him for trying I guess, but I hope no GM bites. Players like that get traded at discounts. Lord knows the Flames have had to do that in the past.
I also get the height issue, particularly for a center, is a real thing, but I do like that Rossi isn't light and has some strength.
