Creative trade. Prospects seem decent. Interesting potential on the pick too. I like it for Russell!

Impressed we snagged an NHL roster player along with a prospect. Well done Treliving.

Kinda feel bad for Wotherspoon. He probably gets driven back out of the lineup again.

But it cannot go lower than 2nd, right? We get the 2nd regardless of them re-signing him. True or false?
