I've been a fan of Matt Stajan for a few years, and I told a lot of my friends that as much as I liked Freddy, they could try to flip him for Stajan. I like the guys we got, but not for the price we paid.
I've been a Dion supporter since we drafted him, and saw him as a franchise Flame. At the same time, Sutter has, IMO, only made one poor trade since he got here (the Stuart/Kobasew deal).
Time will tell as to how good this deal is, but I'd say that Sutter knows what he's doing here, and if we make it past the first round, it might be good for us. I am really surprised Sutter didn't bring in a 3rd or 2nd round pick.
