Re: Replacing Crosby
If you can trade Gusev for RoR then go for it!! RoR could be considered a keeper over one of Strome, Barzal or Labanc (first choice, I replace Labanc with RoR) BUT...I can't see that happening. In fact, Gusev's value is currently such that moving him for one of Staal/N. Schmaltz/Horvat/R. Strome let alone RoR would seem unlikely? Anyway, to answer the question, you have listed the options in the order that I would pursue them. I would suggest you keep a close watch on Crosby's situation, the duration of time he might miss is a factor to take into consideration before making any significant moves. If he misses 4 or 5 games, Hughes may well be an adequate replacement and you won't lose much ground. If the Injury is long term, then ya, you need to look at those options.
