I think you guys are over-reacting, it's a decently good return and way better than Hanifin's. I bet Whitecloud can be flipped for a 2nd. So the return is essentially:
- 1st + 2nd (maybe 1st) + 2nd + random prospect

For a rental that is quite a good return tbh. Sure the Boston return would have been better but it's not that far off, Poitras should be valued around a 2nd, and Lohrei around 1st.

Show me a pending UFA that got a better return, Andersson had a good season but this is not a star player.

Go look at old discussion threads about Andersson and see if people thought we would get a 1st + 2 2nds.
