At 83 you are a lot more likely to get a career minor leaguer then anything. In the last 15 years there has not been a player selected at 83 who has made any sort of contribution in the NHL. The odds are that whoever the Flames would have taken will not get anything more then the proverbial "cup of coffee" in the NHL.

Bollig is not yet a fully developed player so to me this is a hope for hope trade. He sure din't impress with his play in the play offs but the pro scouts have to see some potential there. I'm sure most of us were hoping for trades much bigger then this one, just another reason to dump on this one.
