Scottysabres Posted January 2, 2020 Report Posted January 2, 2020 Moving an FA this early, something else has got to be in the works, Scandella wasn't really bad at all this season, and the may have gotten a 3rd? at the deadline for those looking to add depth, no? 1 Quote

They are opening up cap space to make a move now--or soon--as Botterill knows he doesn't have the luxury of waiting to sell at the trade deadline. 2 Quote

PerreaultForever Posted January 2, 2020 Report Posted January 2, 2020 When's the last time a 4th rounder we drafted made a difference? Can't think of one. Montreal did alright. Basically swapped Reilly for Scandella. Desperate of JBot to help a direct competitor. Quote

We give up the better player, but makes sense from a needs perspective. Not going to fix this team. It makes no ***** sense from a needs perspective. He's not a top 6 forward. 2 Quote
Skibum Posted January 2, 2020 Report Posted January 2, 2020 I hope they have a solid acquisition at forward lined up after this. Otherwise, this trade accomplished nothing. Quote

PerreaultForever Posted January 2, 2020 Report Posted January 2, 2020 One could ask, is Frolik better than ERod? I would say yes, maybe, and if so, the team is better (slightly) because we have extra D men and Scandella was gone end of year regardless. Hardly earth shattering though. Quote
