Versteeg being traded shouldn't come as a surprise, he said in an interview in the summer that he himself wouldn't be surprised if he was traded although staying in Chicago was obviously his preference. They didn't really miss him in the play offs either when he was briefly injured and when his son was born.
I think that many fans were hoping that by trading Sharp and Versteeg they would be able to retain Saad. Those Toews and Kane extensions are gonna really hurt them when ot comes to rounding out the roster.
