The ROR trade RE: faceoffs is an interesting discussion when you try to dissect the value of faceoffs. If you win faceoffs but can't do anything with the puck after you win them, the faceoff wins don't really matter much. I think it's been shown that faceoffs matter less than having players who can go get the puck, whether during the ensuing post-faceoff play or just in general. It would suck to lose O'Reilly's faceoff production, but if we can get players who are fast, can score, and can control the offensive zone more then I'll be fine with it.
