Guys like these you don't get overly excited about. They are just another chance to get a NHLer.

If you happen to hit and get a replacement player or better then that is great. If you get a Hathaway type, you are laughing. If not, no big deal, you didn't give up a pick, prospect, or roster player for him.

Guys like these allow the organization to pick boom/bust prospects with their late round picks instead of the solid gritty guys with little upside.
