Really good trade from the Oilers' perspective. St. Louis gets a decent return, but it's heavily dependent on how Paajarvi responds, rebounds, and develops with the Blues.
He is Stempniak/Stajan-tough.

That would be enough on a team like the Blues but on small soft teams like the Flames and Oilers that is not near tough enough to fix their problems and make room for their truly small skilled players to succeed.

Glencross would be firmly in the Oilers top 6 if not top-3 if Lowe would have paid him an extra 50K...... an the Edmonton coaches let him off the 4th line.
