I was apprehensive, but not upset. I warmed up to it after letting it sink in.

I was never a big Hamilton fan, but I thought he had more value. I also thought Ferland was a little overrated, but being shallow on RW, I didn't like giving him up. I also didn't anticipate how well Lindholm and Hanifin would fit it at the time, or that Lindholm would be so effective on the RW. I was under the impression that he was a center.

Fox is still a big wildcard in the equation, but either way, it was a great deal for us. I have to shame in my initial reaction.
