On the other hand our D prospects are really good, and hopefully Gillies will continue to develop well after he recovers.
I agree, though the deal was great it did hurt giving up all those 2015 picks. Going to need good value in the next two drafts coming up otherwise we will be in trouble regarding forwards. Need a steady stream of forwards graduating and playing well on cheap deals. UFAs are hardly an option.
