The trade it self was ok, it was the signing of Hubredeau that was the real mistake.
But there were plenty of reports that the number of teams that Tkachuk was willing to go to was small and the returns from some of them, St. Louis in particular was weak.
Who knows what to believe but in terms of reported returns only the Carolina deal around Necas appears to have been better.
