If we get Lowry and can only fit THJ in cap (and I don't think we have the cap for that without other moves) or we can S&T Lowry (not sure Toronto will be interested) then he makes some sense.
In a world where we are not getting Lowry or doing any S&T, its hard to justify spending what it will take to get THJ when we can spend a few more to get better fits (unless of course we can't get those guys here, which is entirely possible).
I know the grass is always greener ... I really don´t see it that way. THJ has that ultrafast release that only Powell would provide - and I don´t see him come for anything we can offer. Also he played with Dame (and McColloum) and they failed bigtime together.
