What someone said on hfboards, reddit or here frankly has little connection to the realities of the deal.

I know. We're in agreement. Some people suggested he's a throw in, and I was disagreeing with that and saying it shouldn't be viewed that way. I don't know why I'm giving that away weight, maybe because it's a discussion forum and I was replying to it.
As for Fox being viewed as "not much value" in the trade. Those thoughts are my own at the time of the trade. With some hindsight perhaps I've either overvalued Hamilton or Ferland and undervalued Lindholm. The deal seemed close as a 2v2, Fox seemed like a massive sweetener. Perhaps I'm wrong, that's a possibility too.
