Round 3 - 2017 (from
*)
Round 3 - 2017
TO PHI Seth Jones, $3.2m (2015-2018) 22yo former 4th overall pick in 2013
Gustav Forsling, $0.2m (2016-2019-
EL) 20yo talented Dman
Benoit Pouliot, $2.1m (2015-2018)
eating contract to get the other 2 young guns into the fold!The player I wanted the most Seth Jones. He's an all around upgrade on the D we're sending the other way. Jagr is on an expiring contract and at 45 we're not resigning him for close to 4million per. No way. Forsling's got big upside. That's it.
BTW, anyone else notice DD is a toughass negotiator.
