Quoting: Caufield
Would this be the best move for CBJ to trade expensively for Bo? Don't forget Sillinger and Johnson in 2-3 years will be top line material and Bo would probably be sent to the 3rd line.
You're not wrong, though whether Johnson can play C is up for debate - he's been on the wing so far, and if that's where he sticks, I'm cool with it.
I think a Horvat/ Sillinger situation at 1C/2C could be great. Plus, I think playing with Gaudreau and Laine/ KJ/ Marchenko/ whoever could really take Horvat's game to a new level.
As for the package, I don't think CBJ do Boqvist *and* CC. I'd do Boqvist, the 1st, a mid-rounder, and maybe add a Foudy/ Bean/ Bemstrom, etc. Give one of those three a change of scenery. CC has some good upside, but he is probably 2+ years from NHL ready, and has a lot of his game to still work on. Boqvist has some defensive issues to work on, but he's got the offensive upside, and I think if VAN is willing to give him a shot at 1RD, Hughes is a better partner/player than Werenski.
