I didn't see anything about last year anywhere in this thread. My statement was in response to the post above about how he got 4 points against Italy and 2 against Germany.
Pacioretty should not be included in any deal unless it's a blow your socks off type move. He has two more years at a 4.5 m which is an absolute steal for an automatic 30+ goal scoring captain. To me it's Galchenyuk that should be moved for a top 6 center, leaving Pacioretty and Lehkonen as your top two LW. Or Galchenyuk simply figures out whatever it is that the coaches want him to do out there at center and he does it.
Why do we want to trade Galchenyuk for a guy 4 years older, who scores at the same rate, and doesn't play very good defence, and his coaches keep putting him on the wing due to those defensive issues, and was the forward with the least amount of ice time for team canada this week? Oh but he wins faceoffs.
Oh yeah, bergevin, i forgot.

"There's going to be alot of turnover" in Colorado - Joe Sakic
So now that we got him where we want him, cue the Matt Duchene trade proposals.
To Colorado: Galchenyuk and Beaulieu
To Montreal: Duchene and a 3rd
