  For me, it would take a lot to get Eller. He's not small, showed some toughness last year, and a developing scoring potential. With how desperate this team has been for centres over the years, I would not lightly trade a guy who will develop into one of the top 3rd lines centres in the league. Greg

  I think the most likely trade package that MB is shopping around would be Bourque (bad year but pretty consistant scorer), Diaz (actually very heavily pursued by many teams last year), plus a pick and a prospect. Everything else is something we can build with. Greg

  Fabulous post! I don't think you'll see Gomez in Hamilton simply because there won't be a need to do this. More likely is that Therrien sits him down, tells him to quit worrying about forcing the offense, and plays him as a fourth line centre. Gives the fourth line a little more offensive potential, and when he's not focused on desperatly trying to break a scoring drought, Gomez can be a reasonalby competant defensive presence. That, a lot more speed and puck control capability than the fourth liner's he'd be facing. The problem is not really with Gomez the player, its with Gomez the contract, we're not signing any superstars this year, so no point in worrying who else would be playing instead. Greg

  I agree with the third and fourth line having no scoring, but the second should give us close to a goal a game if you look at their average points for the last few years. With an average of almost a goal a game from the first line, a few from the third and fourth, a better pp with Markov back, and some PK relief for Pleks thanks to the addition of Prust, the offense won't be great, but it'll be better than last year.
