If you have to give up one of Turris, Zibanejad, or Lazar straight up to get him you probably do it. It makes a lot more sense to have him down the middle with 2 of those guys then the 3 that are there now.
If you can give up a package with equal value to Colorado with say Cowen as part of it... maybe you look at it.
It won't take as much. No chance ROR re-signs with Colorado after next year. They'll probably take Sens 1st and a high-end prospect. They rid themselves of a potential UFA and his large price tag.
I should say Sens 1st, high-end prospect, and roster player. This is the BFR type deal.
