I think it largely depends on the current core of a team. For instance, the Canucks are in win now mode, but a younger team could probably use the building scheme to win. Just my two cents....

Are the Sens still "definite buyers" now that the wheels have come off their wagon, and every team in the conference has a half dozen games in hand on them? Just curious.

Howson is on meth if that deal went down, not to mention the 7.8 cap hit Vancouver would be taking on. I'd give Connolly, Komisarek, 2 1sts and The Monster if I knew that was all it was going to take to get Nash AND their 1st

Nash has already said publicly he would waive his NTC if the Jackets thought it was best for the team to trade him but he hoped to stay. If I were CBJ I would try to deal Carter if possible but try to get a goalie in the offseason. Keep Nash, the #1 pick and overpay a goalie or put an offer sheet on Rask AFTER the draft if he's not signed in Boston. CBJ shouldn't care about GM unwritten rules or losing future draft picks after the upcoming one.

The bJs would have to add Johanssen to that deal to get our future vezina winner.

Nash, Johanssen + 1st for Schneider and Raymond.

If they trade Nash and Carter and recieve aroun 4 or 5 top end prospects, they have the number one pick in the draft, JUST BUILD YOUR TEAM HOWSON. The guy is a bonehead. He can get a good team in a few years if he just trades away Nash and Carter

This site only survives because I allow it to. I can make any point I like, whether it be valid or my normal level of drivel.
