So it's down to trading picks and whether or not that was a good idea. Last year they were in a position where if they didn't add you'd be choked as they had a legitimate chance to win and added what should have been a solid veteran forward that could play the wing or the middle.
They made the Toffoli addition, which was terrific. Adding Jarnkrok, sure, fine, good — but why not try Pelletier first? That's an addition in its own right and it doesn't cost you a thing.
