The Nordiques are in a rebuilding stage, «
renovation required because of a series. of less-than
productive drafts. Even if they somehow reach the
Stanley. Cup playéffs this season, there's still a
monumental task ahead

which means a“tet*of“gleepless
nights for the employees of the organizations, and
especially for the general managers.

playoff position

Put yourself, for example, in the position of
Martin Madden, the decision-maker of the Quebec
Nordiques. The team is a handful of points away
from the-final playoff spot in the Adams Division, but
they are also Gne losing streak away from falling
hopelessly out of the race, at which point some huge

decisions will have to be made.

before the March 7 trading deadline

Stastny. the 32-year-old Nordiques captain, is
usually the first name that comes to mind at the
mention of the word Nordiques. He was brought to
Quebec from his native Czechoslovakia in a daring
move by Nordiques president Marcel Aubut, and in
just under nine.seasons,-he-is-a hat-trick removed
from 350 career goals

Goulet, a 29-year-old with a deft scoring touch
has been with the Nordiques since they joined the

NHL in 1979, He shares equal space on the marquee
with Stastny, with 434 career goals, 20 of which have
come this season

The closer it gets to the trading deadline and the
more precarious the playoff position of certain teams,
the greater the likelihood of urgent phone calls to
Madden's office. And the more sleep he is likely to
lose as he contemplates the future course of the
team

Or consider another scenario: the New York
Rangers haven't won a Stanely Cup since 1940, In
Phil Esposito, they have a general manager who's
quick on the trading trigger, and he just might be
convinced that this could be the year if he was
able to acquire a playmaker of Stastny's stature
‘That would surely bring the Nordiques an extra
first-round draft selection and an everyday player,
perhaps more

PICKS AVAILABLE
Or maybe the Edmonton Oilers feel they could

make a serious run at a third straight Stanley Cup by
obtaining a Stastny or Goulet; and following the
Wayrie Gretzky trade, they are certainly armed with
a fistful of draft choices to deal

The Nordiques had the third and fifth picks in
last year's draft. But the pool of amateur talent each
June usually gets shallow after the first round, and
the Nordiques would likely advance their rebuilding
plan if they could stockpile early selections

Adding to Madden's insomnia, though; is the
potential backlash-by dealing such a popular
performer as Stastny. That still has.to be measured
against the fact the Coliseum faithful are anxious to
see their team return to contending status, and by
the time the Nordiques are ready to do so, a Stastny
or Goulet may be nearing the end their career and
without the value they command today

To achieve theirlong-term goal, it may be tough
for Madden and the Nordiques to sit tight through
the trading deadline
