Brooks is just not long enough for our needs. We need a SF and although he is a tough defender he still only has a 6'6" wing,
I still think Toronto is our best trade partner. I think a fair trade is Ant for OG while giving them a young prospect in Kris Murray and taking back Young's 8 million contract. That is more than fair.
I get that and I agree it is an overpay. But if you think OG is a good fit (A defensive-minded forward with decent size and just about to turn 26) then you have to overpay. Too many teams want him.
