There is literally no trade involving Geno that keeps this team as competitive as they are now.

If we are talking Prime time in it to win Malkin I would tend to agree with you. If we are talking do my own thing, try here and there, injured all of the time, more worried about trying to look tough than play hockey Malkin I disagree.
Malkin and Schultz for Trochek and Ekblad. You get a really solid 2C and a 1D both signed to long term deals. Also get $3M to put toward free agency.
But I want to trade Kessel more than Malkin. Send him & Johnson to Minny for Brodin. Put another $5M into free agency.
McCann-Crosby-Jake
Zuccarello-Trochek-Hornquist
Rust-Bjugstad-Nyquist
Kunitz-Blueger-Simon
Dumo-Letang
Brodin-Ekblad
Maata-Gud
I'll take this all day over the current roster.
