I hate to trade Oshie but after much thought I decided we need to stick with the youth movement. We get two pretty good prospects and a potential wildcard in Gusev. I'll be honest Goligoski has a god awful contract and will likely have a new home before christmas(bid him up boys)
Indians' philosophy is to win now so he gets a prime Oshie and a more than capable D Man in Van Riemsdyk. I figured I'd likely lose him in the expansion draft anyway so no big loss(sorry daddy) although I would have like to have held on to him.
