I personally have never been completely sure if Suzuki would be a Hurricane in the long run. He is an intriguing Center prospect, but I just have a hard time imaging that they would trade Drury before Suzuki. In a trade like this, but think it really depends on how you value the ceiling of a player. Suzuki has a higher floor than Drury, but Drury has the higher ceiling of the two. Minnesota has really good winger prospects, but they don’t have as many high end centers. If Suzuki + 2nd rounder doesn’t do it, you might be able to push for that plus another center prospect who isn’t Drury. I am pretty sure that if the Canes were to trade one of Suzuki and Drury, the player who isn’t traded will likely stay.
