It’s a decent trade, but at best you hope that 1st turns into a Bertuzzi 5-7 years from now. It’s not exactly a “building” trade when you consider their window based on Larkin’s age.
Decent may be understated, but I think while Yzerman has been competent since leaving TB, there’s no real evidence he’s a cut above other good GMs. The wings have been rebuilding since he got there and it looks kind of like they are starting the process over.

This deal - I just mean that this is as likely to be contract based as some sort of Master Plan by Yzerman.
