Oh I get this. And if he wants more than 7 mill I would be inclined to trade him too. But where are we going to find a player that fits with our number 1 store so much.
He is 2/3 of our 1st line, meshes well with Eichel. Unless we get something back and have a 'Malkin type center' coming back, I don't see how we can trade him.
