Getting something for nothing is always good even if the asset you receive is just okay.

Nemisz was not going to be kept, nor should he have been. He was the lowest forward on the totem pole, on par with Carter Bancks. He still has "former first rounder" attached to his name so we were able to get the equivalent of a 4th or 5th round pick as that is what it would likely take to acquire Westgarth.

Westgarth is just a filler player at either level. I suppose that it is better to have more physicality in our lineup(s), but I would rather focus on getting players that play with an edge and can do things offensively. Similar to Boston with Lucic and Marchand. Poirier is a step in the right direction, but we need more of that type.
