Yeah, you’re probably right. I suck at trade proposals, that’s why I never post them, lol
My reasoning was this:
-Risto has been in trade rumours for a few years now. It has been said in the press that Buffalo has been trying to trade him. His advanced stats are bad, but his size, skating, and physicality are tantalizing, and some believe (myself included) that he would look much better somewhere else besides Buffalo. Could have sworn he was a left shot, though.
-Mittlestadt was a high draft pick, who hasn’t come close to fulfilling his potential. I thought he looked fine, until Kruger took over.
-Risto and Mittlestadt were basically throw-ins to balance out the trade, the cap, and to entice them into getting rid of a few problems along the way. I admit, I put Mittlestadt in there for selfish reasons, because I like the player, and I think he can rebound.
