A reasonable point, but IIRC the trade for Kipper was Sutter reacting to an emergency situation - the injury to Turek and (I think) the backup, as well. Although he had prior experience with Kipper from his days as San Jose's coach, I doubt Sutter realized what a gem he was getting. The deal for Kotalik, on the other hand, had lots of planning behind it.
