The Senators are happy with the deal as they pick up two big prospects in Gillies and Scandella, and pick up an expiring contract in Brunette. They had to give up a young defencemen in Karlsson but feel that Gilles and Scandella fit better with their team. They also give Minnesota some cap relief and an NHL defencemen they seek.
