Fair and square.

Lots of retooling by the new owners. Good to see.

Just makes too much sense.

A great example of two teams building with the same pieces but using different strategies.

Another good trade for both teams. It is encouraging to see teams trading for needs and not just the sake of dealing.

Teams are going after the pieces they like and getting it done!
Hossa's deal looks reasonable in the current market but he's closing in on his expiry date. Wonder how Chad will do on the Island. I like that package headed to with Kimmo out, Streit should get more PP mins. and adding a young G like Grubauer is great for the Rangers future in net.

I have already replaced Streit with Niskanen in Free-Agency. Moving out Stewart cleared the deck for Hossa at RW. The contract term is IMO offset by the upgrade from Grubauer to Johnson. Thanks for the deal e40, glad to get it done.
