I voted for Poirier but Knight cost more than a 4th to aquire. He cost a 4th plus being willing to sign with us. The fact that the Panthers had no choice but to trade him and everyone knew it deminished his value significantly.

I would suspect under contract now we could get at least a second round pick for him.
