This is a classic Dubas play, I like it for PIT.

Rangers probably wanted the guy that they thought Pittsburgh was about to take.

So, they paid just enough to jump one spot.


Fair deal, give or take.

Was there really a danger that Pitt was going to take a D man who had one goal for the NTDP last year? I get it that Dan Muse wants us to take his guys and a 7th is slightly more than a bag pf pucks, but I dont see the logic of trading a pick to move up one slot.
