Not sure who else we would have to give up other than Prucha for Cheechoo. Maybe a 1st or second rounder. Agreed, Id let Jags walk if could get Hossa and Cheechoo.

I agree with JDP and i think things will clear up when Hossa decides where he is off to. Prucha is a $1.6m per cap hit, Cheechoo is $3m per and has 3 seasons left so is cheaper than you think.

Just read JDP's article and by his calcs they have 9M of cap space left, add 3M to that for subtracting backman and pock, you have 12M. I think they will trade prucha(3M), this will give them 15M minus who they get for prucha, someone else in a package. Lets say its Cheechoo, we might not take a full cap hit for him this year so, getting him(lets say 4M), Orpik(4M) and Hossa(7-8M) is not out of the question. Here is what I am thinking.

I'm thinking he's getting at least 5 per maybe 6. Now that Sundin has a 10m per offer on the table i doubt he will sign for 6. I didn't hear much about Naslund yesterday....will be interesting to see what happens with him. I'm thinking we'll sign Nagy and trade for someone like Cheechoo.....but i'm just guessing, it could end up being messrs Shanahan, Jagr and Avery?

He is a physical D-man, not a PP specialist, goal scorer or anything like that. Rosi is actual his size minus any grit. Anybody pays more than 4M for Orpik is out of their mind.
