None of them are sure things, and they are trading for a proven offensive, two-way winger, something they desperately need.

I was thinking the Rangers would take a look at Samuelsson, considering he plays the point on the power-play, but I'd rather have a steadier player (and smarter passer) like Hudler next year if we decided to make a run at one of the Detroit's guys. As for the possible trade scenarios, I'm a little disconcerted seeing people give up on our first round picks so early just to entertain the idea of landing a slightly above average scoring threat for our abysmally inept offense. Sanguinetti was the top defensive scorer in Hartford and recorded the hardest shot at the AHL all-star game. Just sounds like he'd fill a few voids on the blue line for us, although we do have Del Zotto and Gilroy as options if Sanguinetti is truly expendable. Let's just hope Grachev and Anisimov can put up some numbers if they are given the chance to do so in the NHL. Anyway, great post, take it easy.
