He's not just a 4th line plug. Think along the lines of a bigger Bouma. Hits more, scores more, fights better.
The price was higher than anyone would have liked but at the end of the day we're a better team than we were before the trade, and I personally didn't have much hope of getting a solid prospect in the 3rd round this year.

I don't want to build a team like the Oilers. I don't know why that's the only thing you took from my post.
We already have 2 terrible hockey-playing goons signed for next year. We didn't need to trade an asset for another one.
Simple as that. Bad trade, bad asset management, wrong team philosophy.
