Some posters fail to realize that this might have been the absolute best out there. Your personal expectations don't determine the market. Who's to say he waits till the deadline and the best offer we get then is worse than the one we got from Florida? That is entirely a possibility. Knowing the due dillegence Treliving does I trust that they weighed their options and felt this was the best decision. Hudler was never bringing back a 1st. He was never bringing back a top prospect. He's a small, slow, one dimensional player with 10 goals on the season who is a 32 year old UFA and is looking for a huge raise. No one is giving up anything substantial for him.
