There isn't any model out there that will look at a player with no points and put a positive light on him.

I put some faith in our scouts. He's spent a season in the AHL developing, maybe his defensive game or shoring up weaknesses has taken significant strides since these writeups occurred. Guess we will see.

Tons of people are underwhelmed I can understand it. Considering this was the best deal offered, thank goodness it wasn't a different deal or people would have been in shambles. I do wish the 3rd was based on WCF or something more favorable considering the retention.

All things considered, I give this a 7/10.
