I probably talked to 10 teams about Karlsson. Most deals were a few decent pieces coming back, but this one has a really quality top tier prospect coming back my way. Hated to move Karlsson but had to for salary reasons

Thanks to William Karlsson for being here for the 4 seasons Ive been a GM, he became one of my favorite non flames and he was one of my best players year after year. He was one of the few guys remaining from when I started here. Gonna miss having him

It is very unlikely that I trade wild bill for anything short of a ransom, by the way

If by ransom you mean a 1st that would be great...

Fair deal all around
