I really like olofsson, wouldn't move him for that. Jokiharju is worth more than that, plus our depth at right d is so thin that trading him for any kind of futures, let alone a meh 4th rounder- that's no go territory. And I'm not a jokiharju backer. Mittelstadt is too hard to evaluate right now. He's got a season to put up some crooked numbers and prove that he belongs at center in the NHL. Maybe he gets moved to wing, where he won't have the same responsibilities as a center, but his value likely takes a hit at the same time. And I bet johnson walks next August, which is fine, we will get a 2nd round pick as compensation which is likely more than he returns in trade.
