The extension was already posted but not the trade. This is a really solid deal for us. Great option on the 1st rounder, an expiring/expendable Kubalik, and a mid-range D man in Sebrango (whom I liked but is also at best currently 4th or 5th on our defensive prospect depth chart). No Berggren/simlar. Overall, nice piece of business.

I'm okay with it in context. He started the year hot and then tapered a bit. 10 goals in first 24 games, then 10 goals in his final 56.

Truth is probably somewhere in the middle but the reality is that he was never someone to generate much on his own. He has a great spot but his play away from the pick always left a ton to be desired. Happy to give him up to get a 2x 40 goal scorer who is also nearly 2.5 years younger and a right shot.
