Is that maybe too much to give up? Considering all the stats and comparison's of reinhart and Larkin, Zadina's potential and consistent rise in points and up the chain of forwards, that just might be too much. Plus Reinhart would have to be protected (unless the deal is made after the expansion draft.) so that would box out another forward. Would Sam really be good enough to be the #1 C here? I mean, is he THAT much better than Larkin or would it be more like a 2A and 2B combo? Even if Larkin or Reinhart played wing, would they still (on most NHL teams) be a legit top 3 or just on Detroit? If I'm giving up a 6th OA plus Zadina (at this point Cholo is just a throw in) I am really hoping to get a real #1 C...but then again, that may cost a ton more. Honestly, I would do that trade for Eichel, Zadina + Cholowski + 6th OA AND a 2nd. Then again, I'd much rather target a top 2 D-Man with the 6th OA. If Werenski were available, now we'd be talking. I am not so sure he's available though with all the talk of Jones being dealt. or someone who is bedard than what we have now!

I just hope we nail the pick. That's all I ask. I want a very good NHLer.
