<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JOFA</b></div><div>Sorry that's not happening. Bonino would be tied for 4th on your team in points. Look what teams are offering for toffoli, Bonino has 1 less point than he does and has plenty of playoff experience as well. He might be worth more than what I think.

I can live with Turris for the rest of his contract and hope he turns it around, rather than take Ladd and an injured hickey and burying them in the AHL. I get that would be great for you guys but we already have enough under performing talent on our roster lol</div></div>

Bonino may be having a nice year, but he is overpaid and does have another year left on his contract. His value isn't that high. I guess I'd go as high as a 3rd, but he's not more valuable than Toffoli.

Fair enough on Turris and Ladd. Regarding Hickey, he's only in the NHL because we have seven defensemen better than him, including Dobson who had to stay in the NHL instead of being sent to juniors. I think Hickey would be better than some of your other reserve defensemen in the system and he wouldn't kill your cap.

That being said, I'd be more inclined to give picks and prospects for Granlund and Irwin.
