To me, this is the trade that makes sense for both teams, and is both balanced and reasonable for both sides.
Markstrom + Rooney for Mercer + 1st
Retention + taking Vanacek for Casey
We get a 1st, a C and a D prospect. They get a retained Markstrom, plus a 4th line C. The trade just makes sense for both teams, as Mercer and Casey are both expendable for Jersey, because of their depth at those positions.
My concern is that the infatuation period is over, and the window has now closed to get this done. Just my gut feel.
