Not big on Hirvonen, but he’s not terrible. Probably tops out at a 3rd line center. The issue with this trade is we’re getting more center prospects when we have so many centers in our system. Yeah, guys can be moved to wing, but I would prefer to be receiving guys who have played and thrived on the wing, guys who can score. And that goalie prospect doesn’t seem to be anything interesting.
I don’t know. We really need a big piece coming back and I’m not sure Abramov moves the needle enough. And we’re not sending those picks back if we’re moving Wilson and Vanecek. Again, it’s two guys we do not need to move and can help us compete next year. If we lose Vanecek in expansion, fine. At least we don’t lose anything more than our cheap young backup.
