Edmonton sends:Daniel Alfredsson, $2.7m (2013-14)Kris Letang, $3.5m (2013-14)Winnipeg sends:Tyler Johnson, $0.2m (2014-15)Alexandre Burrows, $3.6m (2014-15)Justin Schultz, $0.2m (2014-15)Keith Yandle, $3.3m (2014-15)Edmonton also sends down Justin Fontaine to make this deal work.Edmonton does this deal to pick up youth. Didn't really want Burrows but was needed to get the deal done. Edmonton likes the incoming talent of Johnson and Schultz!
I also get what you guys are saying about Johnson but what happens to him once Stamkos come back? He will not be playing with St. Louis anymore and producing near as much. Schultz has had a bad season, he hasn't looked nearly as good and this is coming from an Oiler fan. Burrows is the cap dump as he hasn't produced anything really this season. Yandle was thrown in because it was him or Jones and he makes the cap work and it a 30 year old instead of a 20 year old. Winnipeg gets the two best players in the deal in Alfredsson and Letang, so how can we work it so that I actually get value back for two of my top players?
