Berra then was flipped for a 2nd rounder (COL), which then turned into Hunter Smith.
So basically we got Cundari (AHLer), Poirer and Smith.
Have to wait and see how Poirer and Smith turn out before we can fully judge the trade. Poirer could be a gem.

That may be true, but I don't think we should have to get a steal in the draft for the return on a trade to look good. A better GM should have been able to get more than Berra and Cundari.
I think of it like paying 100$ for a good lottery ticket and 25$ worth of some junk. Sure, that deal might end up being worthwhile, but it's really just a stroke of luck if it does.
Getting a second for Berra does make that trade look a lot better though.
