A pretty easy trade to make for the Sharks, Patches is a pending UFA and we had no intention in locking him up. In Pirri we get a cheap option locked up for 2 years, only 1OV less and a decent prospect added. We sent $7.25mill in the deal but were happy to do so because that gets us away from the $18mill cheese max and gives us more flexibility later on.
