You know, of all the people here I would have expected you to like this trade. Any time a team has an opportunity to improve now AND in the future they should take it. Pedan was never going to make a significant contribution, he's never been an offensive talent, while Pouliot has. There is just more chance that this works out in the teams favour. If this allows them to trade one of the other D near the deadline and they get a 4th or higher pick back will it ease your distaste?

To me, it's not a big deal. It might work out, it might not. The cost wasn't high, and I think it was fair based on the players switching teams.

I do. Just busting your chops donny. My whole point was less about pouliot and more about my praise for benning drafting. He surprised me so much with how he drafted recently that seeing picks included is just a bit disheartening. I see the low risk high reward in a 23 year old. I just like the recent value in picks outside the first 2 rounds by benning as well.

You fill out a bracket for this year?

Palmu was a late pick....Folks are high on him but the reality is it would be a miracle if his career is even close to what pouliot has already acheive (67 games). Yes, a miracle. We traded a 4th for a player that will play at least 100 games in the NHL and has the upside of a top 6 dman. Pretty fair gamble and not worth this many comments

If tankers want a stand pat GM then why have 1?
Only need to hire a BlackJack dealer & give him 17 for 11mths of the year.

Good start to the year
