Thornton/Bieksa for Phaneuf/Brodie
Does this improve my team? It means I probably need to pickup a D either on waivers or via a trade (thin waiver pickings include Kingberg, Andy Greene, Alec Martinez). To me it hinges on who the real Brodie is. I'm currently in first in PIMs, A, G, Pts, and 3rd in +/-, so I'm struggling to evaluate if this helps or not. I may be blinded by getting the best player in the trade but solid D is important in this league. FYI - The original offer was Thornton/Demers/Braun for Phaneuf/Brodie, but Braun/Demers have very little value in our pool, so I would likely counter to get Bieksa instead.
