Well I've been wondering all season what they were going to do with Backlund/Granlund. Then Backlund started playing solid hockey and Granlund continued to be meh and it seemed like Granlund's long term future here was extremely questionable.
Getting a former 1st rounder who is having a good year in the AHL for our 2nd rounder seems like solid asset management. I like the trade. We need to load up on some offensive winger prospects.
