It was very difficult to trade Giroux, however I felt that the return was good enough that I could not resist. The Hawks are a team with few notable prospects and this deal begins to address this issue. With two picks in the top 40 I can begin to rebuild the prospect base. Barbashev also adds a highly regarded prospect to the cupboards as well.

And Malkin is not too bad either.

Ultimately this deal was done because I was tired of having to listen to Philly's constant trade proposals.
