Tbh I was confused at the time. I mean, Larsson is a pretty good defenceman but he benefitted tremendously from playing with Greene. I figured his age plus his draft pedigree suggested untapped potential and that they figured he would develop to a top pairing guy. He's still playing second pairing minutes so, while I am sure Oiler fans are satisfied with the deal, taking McDavid's dominance out of the equation I maintain that they got poor value out of that deal.
