It's at the point now they can't wait 3 weeks to trade Nash/Grabner. One will get hurt before then. The team looks like it has quit so Gorton needs to act now or fire himself

It's a Catch 22, because the trade market may not be fully developed at this point, meaning that competition to acquire a player can drive up the price you get for him. But, if there is a good deal now, by all means take it even if you think you could get a little more at the deadline. It's such a touch risk reward analysis, and it's damn hard to healthy scratch a player for three weeks. The whole situation kind of sucks.
