The Panthers are looking to package Georges Laraque up with another player for an upgrade at any position. We're not going to go out and say that Georges has huge value, but he can provide some great toughness to your team if that's what you're lacking. Plus, he's only RFA after this season, and is all but assured to get a good rerate. He's almost got as many points as he did last year already, is on the plus side in +/-, and as far as "goons" go, he doesn't spend a huge amount of time in the penalty box.

Anybody interested, e-mail kentsoro@telus.net, or catch me on ICQ.
