I like the trade. The potential of Lazar I think is worth more than the potential of a 2nd round pick.
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush! Or something like that.
If I had to make a prediction. I think the rest of this season for him is going to go much like his time in Ottawa. Its hard for a 22 year old to play catch up the whole year. But next year with a fresh start and a clean bill of health, he becomes an important part of the team.
