Quebec - Mats Sundin for Wendell Clark and parts. Yeah, yeah, on the plus side they turned Clark into the previous years' Conn Smythe trophy winner, and he (Lemieux) did have 39 goals and 71 points that season, but was he that big of a factor in the playoffs (aside from destroying Kris Draper's face)? How good could they have been, how many Cups could they have won with Mats Sundin over Claude Lemieux?

Similarly to the Sundin-Clark trade, the Oilers trading Taylor Hall for Adam Larsson... only for Hall to have already won a Hart trophy in two years.

breaking up the Legion of Doom and thinking bringing Gratton here from the Lightning was an upgrade over Renberg.... like bringing Cliff Lee back like the Phils did - as the Orange and Black did Renny - it was just too late...............after they jettisoned a fan favorite and major contributor Yup. While I don't think Renberg would have kept up the pace of the 35 or so games the Legion of Doom had together, or that the idea of adding Chris Gratton was bad... but why do you break up that line? Was management on a high from the LeClair trade working out so well?
