Philly greases the squeaky trade wheels again and makes a deal with Nashville to accomplish a few goals: save cap, get a chance to draft a young high potential prospect with a high 2nd round pick. Traded to D Matt Niskanen, $5.5m (2014-2018)Traded to D Stephen Johns, $1.5m (2016-2019)Round 2 - 2017 (from *; via ; originally )Cap saved = 4.0mNiskanen is superior as a defenseman in every way compared to Johns, except for 1 area, age. Johns is 24. Niskanen is 30. Johns is ahead of the 24yo version of Niskanen. Add that to a high 2nd pick while saving $4.0 million bucks, Priceless!Thanks BB!
