Opportunistic deal for the blues. Sit on Stempniak for a bit and then flip him for more assets.
Smart play by a gm with cap.
As I said earlier, I don't understand the urgency for the islanders. I get the win now and Ufa thing but sometimes the best move is to wait for a market rather then force one. That said, hopefully the cap goes to good use in Ufa and you get the upgrade your looking for, you paid a steep price for the opportunity to bid.
