gets Chris Kunitz LW $3,700,000 (11/12), 2nd round pick #17 & 3rd round pick #17
gets Teddy Purcell C $2,400,000 (13/14), 3rd round pick #3 & 5th round pick #12
I trade a good young forward with a cheap contract for a veteran winger. I make this trade to, once again, fill positional needs. To compensate for the age/price difference I'm getting a better draft position in return. Considering that I'm edging the cap already I probably lose in this deal but since I traded a 3rd round pick for Purcell I've essentially received Kunitz for a 5th round pick and a better position in round 2, which to me is a total steal.
Pitts to confirm. Thanks cho!
