.......yes lets finally bury the hatchet and welcome back one of the most loved players in franchise history.....a whole generation of hockey fans grew up watching him play and it's a shame that he and the organization haven't moved on yet.....

For them, not us. It would be something. Probably need steeger, schenn, 8th, 1rst 2012, carle, 2nd 2012, 3rd 2011 and future considerations. But it would be worth it.

well from tampa's stand point they get a versatile, gritty forward, a solid young puck moving defenseman, a potential all star goalie and cap space to sign the guy they really want, brad richards

I don't think that trade would work in NHL11! let alone real life

The trade scenario was easily the most lopsided trade. It would be the best move the team had ever made.

You get arguably the 2nd best player in the world right now, and already established huge d-man with top top potential for pennies on the dollar (in comparison).

Steeg is a decent player, carle is a decent player. Bob is a decent goalie, and a late first round pick? Not a chance.
