This is also why I don't understand the overreaction to that deal by Gorton. He knows that the league overvalues players like McQ. He paid a fair price so that he could work him up to the deadline when some desperate team will pay a better price. It won't be a Nash-level fleecing but we could see a very fair deal for him in the 11th hour. That is a player I do not expect moved until the actual deadline. If we deal anyone in the weeks leading up to the deadline I would expect it to be Names/Zucc/Fast. I think that Hayes and McQuaid and maybe another Dman will be last minute deals.
