I'm not sure the difference between Ryder and Zherdev is as much as Tuebert, let alone the pick exchange, but the way Ryder is viewed by most around here it may be. I think Ryder's a pretty good hockey player though and fully capable of 30 goals/season again given proper ice-time and opportunity.
In short, a bit much imo, but nothing too serious. Zherdev should still be the best asset in the deal long term.
