The one thing I didn't like about the trade was 2yrs on O'Brien's contract.
Tanguay and Sarich wanted out so trading them was for the best.
Jones and Tanguay's contracts were essentially a wash. Tanguay was getting older and I knew injury would likely plague him moving forward so getting a younger, bigger Jones wasn't terrible. He is serviceable.
But inheriting O'Brien's 2 years compared to Sarich's one I figured was a mistake.
Hopefully he is claimed. But I doubt it.
