well, gryba is an NHL defenceman. He isn't a top pairing or second pairing guy, but the guy is an NHL defenceman on most teams in the NHL.
That's more than can be said for:
Aulie
Hunt
Davidson
Oesterle
and the other guys they tried at the #6 spot.
Good trade. Helps the team next year incrementally. Those picks wouldn't have helped the Oilers next year.
