    Default Thornton for Spezza

    He may agree to his Spezza and Frolik for my Thronton +.
    Trying to figure out what the + would be.
    How about Bailey? Would you do it if you were me?

    Nah, he won't go him. I threw a bunch of names out there: Moulson, Stafford, Hanzal, Barker, Latendresse and Sergei. None seem to have caught his eye.

    The next level for me is Bailey. But I'm reluctant to part with Bailey. I know you have his upside at 50. I kind of expect more, and I'm not sure Frolik is that much of an upgrade.

    as i said Bailey will go the way of his linemates, What about Paul Martin?

    Or looking at his team what does he need or suggest?

    Ok, he's come back saying he's not ready to trade Frolik at this point.

    He's asking if I'd consider Thornton for Spezza and Oshie.

    I'm tempted by this.

    Here's my rationale. Right now, I'm a bottom feeder. But, with guys like Toews, Tavares, Seguin, etc., I hope to contend in a few years.

    Spezza is 4 years younger and will still have a few good seasons to give me at that point.

    I also figure Oshie can be good for 65-70 points by then, and so should be among my 11 best forwards. He's got more upside than many of my forwards.

    He hasn't made it a firm offer yet, but do you think I should push for it?
