Hartikainen was pretty hyped up by the Oilers fan base for a while there, but he had seriously dropped down their depth chart. He's probably never going to pull on Leaf or Marlie's silks.
This is a trade that more benefits Toronto then Edmonton in the long term. In the short term, maybe Fraser can come in and play a quality 14 minutes a . . .
