I can't really decide who I think won, so that probably means it's a fair trade.

Long term it is probably Columbus though but at the same time Nashville turned in a 2nd pairing dman (on their team) into a top line center, so that makes them much better.

Forwards tend to top out younger then d-men, and Jones is 3 years younger then Johansen, so slight edge from that perspective.

Makes sense for Nashville though with the players they have on the backend already.

Good ole fashioned hockey trade.
