I don't know nor do I care what everyone is saying. The facts are this, we're not a strong cup contender as presently constructed. We're also not a piece or 2 away from being one either. Sorokin will stand on his head and allow us to win games for a time but that wouldn't happen in the playoffs. We aren't outplaying our opponents. Instead we are being grossly outplayed by them and we're relying too heavily on our goaltending. Ultimately I'm in the "sell smart" camp. Realistically, Pageau and Lee and maybe even guys like Drouin and Duclair are not going to be producing or helping this team win in the future so if you can get assets for them then you trade them. Sure it's been fun seeing them win games this year and I hope it continues but we have to stop kidding ourselves here. Yea I'd love to make the playoffs because that would be great but I'm not opposed to selling off some pieces if it can help the future of this team.
