That was a messy trade, but a couple firsts and a 2nd moved there. I would consider them middle 6.

Isn't Gourde a center?
I found that middle 6 Cs did get better returns. Like TOR giving up a 1st for Laughton. COL giving up a haul for Nelson etc. I'm not sure how much of that was for Gourde vs Bjorkstrand. Also in the seasons before the trade, Bjorkstrand was playing at a 59, 46, 58, 64, and 60 point pace. Arguably, he was the more productive winger than Coleman before the trade.
