Had they not signed Grabo & Kulemin to big contracts I wouldn't offer Lee either but no way Strome or Nelson get the boot.

They are a team that doesn't really take that into acct, Kessel for 2 1st's....
They are a smart team and those picks will help them draft solid rookies next year in a loaded draft.......

I am as well, but snow managed to trade for the one guy I thought would be a perfect fit on our defense.

kulemin grabovski conacher
bailey nielson strome

I'm actually more shocked about a trade that addressed an actual need.
All that BS about the checkbook being open is finally out the window. Garth is really rolling the dice as his future is no longer a guarantee with new owners on the horizon.

Only that they're defensive prospects vs. Forward prospects. We're still retaining the most talented of the bunch. Nilsson is back in Sweeden anyway, right?

Only Bailey involved could have made these trades any better.

Thanks Garth. Good of you to use your assets and cap space, finally, for immediate issues.

I make that trade all day. Well done snowjob! The isles are deep enough in the prospect pool that I don't mind giving away pokka, and Nilsson
