Let’s make a deal: Should Columbus trade for John Tavares?

We’ve been having some fun with trade proposals the past few days, and today I offer up the craziest one yet - a trade for John Tavares.

These posts are meant to be exercises in fantasy, but the more I think about it, a trade for Tavares isn’t that outrageous for the Jackets. He’s a legit top-flight center, the type of player any team would covet. He’s got one more year on his current deal (which comes with an 8-team-list NMC, according to Cap Friendly) at $5.5 million per season.
