Olofsson is a good pickup. Let's see what he can do before we call him a minor leaguer
No, I didn't mean Olosfsson.....I meant the Rychel, Valliev, Shankaruk and Baun combo. Montreal did exactly what should do with that 2nd rounder (Olosfsson).....drafted a guy with hope.
Dont know if i would say solid. he wasnt a producer, he was just incredible in the face off circle.
He was a producer, just not in points. He was a key player on the Penalty Kill and was key in getting possession (Yes through faceoffs). He wasn't acquired to put up points.
looking back at this trade you can say toronto won . 7 playoffs games 2 goals 2 assists. All the assets MTL got pretty much went to the garbage. Olofsson had some promise but hes not even a top ten prospect in the system and may not even get a contract offer.
Montreal gave up nothing, other than the slight discomfort of seeing Pleky in a Leafs’ jersey. They basically got Olofsson for free, which isn’t bad at all, he still has the potential to be a good 3rd line C.

You can add that MTL ended up getting Kulak from this trade since they flipped Valiev along with another AHLer for him not long after. That alone should give the Habs the win on this deal

Valiev was the main piece Calgary got when we got Kulak, that instantly means we won the trade. Olofsson still has potential so let's not write him off yet.
