Look at what Hossa+Dupuis got at the time.
Hossa was acquired by the Pittsburgh Penguins at the trade deadline on February 26, 2008, along with Pascal Dupuis, in exchange for Colby Armstrong, Erik Christensen, prospect Angelo Esposito, and the Penguins' first-round pick in 2008 ( Daultan Leveille). [11] |
A late 1st round pick and two prospects is not asking for too much.
Olli Jokinen got a mid to late 1st round pick, a good young centre in Matthew Lombardi, and a good young heart and soul guy in Brandon Prust.
Jokinen can only dream of what Iggy can do in the playoffs.
Even Pierre Lebrun, a national media guy thinks that a 1st and two prospects is fair. The media in the Cities like LA, Chicago, and Boston are just trying to drive the value down for their beloved team. Don't buy into it.
