Eh, I think Rossi is a bit better than Mercer and Buium is a better prospect at this point than Nemec, meanwhile Ohgren has some built-in value for the Canucks because of his junior days. But you're totally right that the relative value is going to be all the result of some fairly subjective prospect valuation that could easily swing the other way in 6 months.
It sounds like the opposite - they started with a value swap and when NJ said no they pivoted to futures.
