Boston wouldn't do Krug for Skinner 1 for 1, let alone adding a pick.

Yes we would

You're delusional. Krug play 20 mins per night, puts up +50 pts a season and has 2 yrs left in his contract.

Skinner is a 2nd line winger who puts up 50 pts a season, doesn't play defense, is streaky and only has 1 yr left.

Krug doesn’t play defense either. I’ll take the 30 goal scoring winger. I love Krug more than most B’s fans do. Even i am sick of watching him in his own end.

In 8 years Skinner has 3x 30 goal seasons. If he scored 30 every year then sure, but the guy is one of the streakiest players i've seen, you literally don't know what you're getting from him every year. And when he's not scoring he's borderline useless.

On top of it he might walk next summer as someone dumb is going to give him Kane/Jvr money, i doubt Boston would.

A couple of those years he missed a third or more of the season. Per 82 games he has averaged 29. Don’t care if he walks after 1. If he doesn’t extend let him walk. Krug isn’t sticking around either. They are trying to trade him now. Would rather have a longer term asset. But then again i’d like to see a cup for this group too. Losing Krug shores up the d in our own end and adds 25-30 goals up front.....win win
