So that he can be with his bud Tocchet.

I have no sense of what Strome would trade for. Would you do a straight-up Kessel for Strome?

Or we can just keep winning championships.

No. I wouldn't trade huge question marks for known commodities that are winning me championships.

I agree with the above. Your winning, PK gets it done, especially in the playoffs. Strome has never seen the playoffs or even a team that has had a chance at such. Not a good replacement player.

I guess I'm of the opinion that there's no way a three-peat is going to happen, so why not build and develop.

I didn't think they could win the first one. How did you feel about their chances of going back-to-back? They're nearly the same team and are sitting pretty great cap wise and only need to address one spot. $11m to resign Shear, Dumoulin, and get a 3rd line Center. That's $3.67m a piece plus what ever salary they trade for the 3C comes off of that.

While it's improbable it only becomes impossible when you work against it.
