All we know for sure is that those players are playing alright on a non-playoff bound team. Look no further than Colborne last season.

Yeah I don't see the Granlund trade as being that great but as you say he wasn't going to get the minutes at centre here. What I thought was he may have done well on LW here but do we really need another small winger. I look at Versteeg as his replacement, so that could be a long argument as to who will fill our needs better. For now I think I'd rather have Versteeg. I guess even if we lose that trade in the long run, it isn't a real biggy.
