I'd be willing to believe that it would take an overpayment for Army to backdoor Sunny, and truthfully i'm not sure if they'd move him regardless unless he wanted to go to a competitive team. He signed league min here late for a reason.

We passed on Reaves for a reason. Reaves is a negative asset and Villeneuve doesn't do much for us as a prospect so he doesn't balance out Reaves IMO. The first is good, but I think having Reaves in there tanks the deal. It's going to take a lot to pry Middleton away from us so having a fairly long term negative asset/cap dump in there when we are firmly in cap hell means you need to improve the rest of the value by more than just throwing in a 4th round pick from nearly 4 years ago who hasn't yet seen the NHL even once.
