I picked "bad", but only because I think there were better options. What we gave up is pretty inconsequential IMO. It is like the Elliott trade. The price was low, but also a reminder that you often get what you pay for.


Kind of OT, but I wonder if Treliving might look for a "Joey MacDonald" type of back-up. One that has NHL experience, but could also pass through waivers so that guys like Rittich and Gillies can rotate in and out of the line-up to get some experience.
