The 15% equates to just over $1,000,000 per season.
So to sum up, you've traded 2 bonafide top 20 starting goalies, for a guy who's projected to be a 3rd line (maybe 2nd line) centre, a potential 20 goal scorer (with a current career high of 14 at age 26) and a goalie who's nowhere close to the level of 25 of the 30 current starters in the league. Oh, and you're paying $1M/year from now to the end of time.
I really though Lowe and MacTavish were the only contenders to take the alltime throne as biggest moron GM from the longtime holder Mike Milbury, but Mike Gillis is really emerging as a contender. He's so laughably bad, he should be a panelist on Sportsnet.
