Sure, Hagel has a high shooting percentage, but he is the kind of player that even when the scoring dries up he contributes in a ton of different ways. Really effective at puck retrieval and setting up his linemates. Draws a ton of penalties too.

Versatile, can play anywhere in your lineup and signed for dirt cheap for 2 more years.

Chicago did well, but when you’re in Tampa’s position you have no choice, but to go all in. Will get 3 playoff runs with him. I like it for them.

Also, getting two 4th’s back is shrewd as well. For a team that drafts as well as Tampa I think the gap between a late first and an early 4th isn’t as big as it looks on paper.
