I don't think these little 'upticks' or 'downticks' mean much. GM's aren't goldfish. They're going to look at the career of the player as a whole. They're going to look at his pre-NHL career, his NHL career to date, and where they think he is going and how does he fit into their plans.
Aside from a pure rental scenario at the trade deadline, this is likely the start of how hockey operations evaluate players. They probably don't read who yahoo thinks is going to have a hot week, or not.
