Trade a young Goalie and Andrew Ladd for a stronger and older Goalie.

Ladd's numbers are very weak this year.

What do you think?

First of all, I think it is too early to trade for another tender but I can see this happening before the trade deadline, secondly I would be so shocked if Ladd gets traded, he hasn't been that good yet but I still think he'll turn it around. Normally trades in the dub have a contender trading young guys away for the good experienced player...right now there are only a few teams who are not likely to make the playoffs so therefore there are probably not that many good tenders available at this point. Kisio won't make a deal yet, this club should be better but I think this road trip will really help the boys grow as a team. I can seem them going 6-1 on this trip. I think there are 2 keys to the Hitmen season, first don't finish 4th in the div. and have to play Med. hat, I think they could repeat as champs, 2nd hope to hell you don't have to play Red Deer...the Rebels have the Hitmen's number when it comes to playoffs.

I actually think the Hitmen need alittle more heart in the lineup...I think they have all the talent in the world they just play like they don't care sometimes. When they play like they should, they are a very good team.
