To Trade Or Not To Trade, That is The Question.

Your best trade might be the one you'll never make, sometimes patience pays off, but for older players getting close of becoming unrestrictive free agents, timing might be perfect to get fresh legs in return, especially if winning the cup is a long shot.  But at what price? missing the playoffs?
