I don't love the return for NYR. Beleskey is a write-off. Spooner had a bad year last year and is playing only marginally better this year. Spooner may benefit from a change of scenery. Ryan Lindgren was a decent D prospect and fairly highly thought of in his draft year. His second year in college hasn't shown the development that they thought he'd show in terms of growth. He has played in the WJC though, so he must be of decent caliber.

I like the trade for both but Boston got a much needed forward for very little.
