You are getting him for 2 players who likely will never play much in the NHL.
His value is likely a first round pick, or maybe 2 seconds.

The same reason Bouma or Colborne wouldn't cost plenty. He had one unexpectedly good season and has returned to his normal self (the self we out on waivers).
I like the player. But Montreal is not getting a first or two seconds for the guy.
