This looks like an awesome addition to the team. Always warry of trading away 1sts, as more often than not rentals don't work out. But TT isn't a rental, slots into a position the team needs depth on, and is a 200 foot player that is already familiar with the coach, system and players. I don't see how this doesn't work out long term and provide great value for what was traded away.
1. The 1st will hopefully be a late one.
2. I personally don't think Henenenem is going to be a better player for us then Bennett was as a Flame (not FLA Bennet FYI).
3. Glad to see some salary go back the other way with Pitlick.
4. And the 5th is nothing to worry about, as the 4th round is where Flames strike gold.
Having this trade go down before the deadline is also a solid move, as it gives much more time for TT to slot in somewhere and to get his legs under him.
Really excited for this move. For the first time in a looooooong while, I am genuinely (but also very cautionsly) optimistic for how this team performs down the run and in the playoffs.
Let's see what Sutter can do!
