Based on what?

14th & 15th last year in scoring would say that there were only 13 players in the NHL more productive then either of them last year. So 23 man roster, 30 teams means 14/15 out of 690 players and you want a higher caliber player?

How are you planning on attaining one or two of those HIGH CALIBER players? Then there is the whole UFA's fetch more then their worth problem. Signing the Sedins is a no brainer at almost any cost and if Gillis doesn't get it done he might as well just start the rebuild now. Gaborik and Cammeleri or Gaborik and Hossa without the Sedins does not put us any closer to a cup, 1 step forward 2 steps back.
