I was plenty happy with that (especially since I was sitting Stajan and had Brodie playing up already, and was swapping between Carson, Butler and Hannan for the 6th spot prior to the trade)
Then the kicker was they put Hannan on waivers, and I picked him back up, which put him in the minors... so he can help out the Heat while I just have Carson & Butler play in the 6th spot. Makes the trade look pretty sweet imo.
Odds are I'll finish first (or high up) anyway so the 1st round picks aren't all that vital to me, I usually end up with a few 2nds via trading prospects that I don't plan to re-sign. The game really seems to over-value 1st round picks in balancing trades.
Unfortunately in 5 games, Stamkos only has 1 goal & 1 assist... but I've been bouncing him between 1st line C and 2nd line RW, can't quite decide where to use him since Backlund & Iggy are playing well together.
