This was also a very good trade for Victoria. Gogolev is exactly what the team needed. Obviously a one-year thing, but with our glut of very good 93/94 forwards (Hodges/Magee/Walker/Nelson/Carroll) we could afford to deal Jones, a good player, but stuck down the depth chart.

And on a mildly unrelated note, I think Ben Walker is one of the most underrated players in the league. 29 points and a +18 in 33 games on team that is filled with minus players. Pretty much always one of the best players on the ice every game.
