I was very unhappy initially because the optics of acquiring yet another depth defenseman from the Kings, but I've grown to appreciate a bit how Forbort and Gustafsson can add different dimensions with their games.
If we can get 2014-15 Wideman and Engelland here... I like the sound of that.
Still, I'm not super psyched at the prospect of losing a bunch of guys in UFA, but as dino7c said, it's nice to keep the top 2 picks.
I give it a very conflicted 5 out of 10. I do wish they'd added a forward, though.
