No we can't trade him because of his gross contract. Again I'm no fan of his but in his defence he was put in a crap position by the team, he was a shutdown center expected to score goals as well. It's been constant theme on this team, players not knowing their roles and being asked to do what they have never done. I am glad to see it changing but I think that comes from having enough top end talent to allow the role players like Horcoff and the like to be role players.

(I wasn't pointing fingers at anyone before it was a general statement, mostly brought on by listening to sports radio all day lol)
