In seriousness, I like this a bit more for the HAwks because bryz seems to be doing ok for the yotes and Dipi has tons of injury concerns. I'd have swapped the 2 one for one but that is about it.
I agree with you, this trade is likely better for the Hawks right now. There are two reasons I did the trade; one was that the Canadiens haven't had a goalie with a rating 80 or above in over three years and Rick brings that. The other reason is I think Dipietro is a better goalie.

Whether Rick has a healthy year next year will ultimately determine if this trade is good for the Habs or not, but it does make my team better either way.
