Pierre did say he doesn't think they will trade him but IF he was the MTL GM he would pick up the phone and call Shero and say "hey Ray, the drafts in Pittsburgh this year, we know it might be tough to keep the big 3 together long-term (all 3 need new deals in the next 2 summers) so how about the 3rd pick overall for Staal? Assuming he signs an extension of course."
It's pretty much the same thing we discussed here last week here with the Leafs and the 5th pick.
Anyways, thought that was interesting.
Not to rehash old material, but I really, Really, REALLY hope the Leafs don't trade the pick. Or, more accurately, I suppose what I'm trying to do is state the obvious is that I hope they don't trade the pick for a mediocre return. I love Stall and what he brings, but the fifth for Stall (or Nash for that matter) is not something I'd be thrilled over.
Agreed.. and just to note that Pierre didn't get the GM job in Montreal so his ideas while fun on radio may not be what owners want to hear.
