This is good because it's not us involved

This is nutty. Sell Barrie for the love of god.

Without getting into my whole Barrie spiel again, are these prices really that nutty? They seem like standard deadline returns for defensive #3/4 defencemen or middle-6 forward. It's always like a 2nd round pick and then you spin a wheel for something else (another 2nd, 3rd, prospect, nothing).

Anyway DeMelo is probably the best defenceman on this board and he got far and away the last value back. That's partly beacause Dorion's a dumb-dumb but it's also absolutely because he doesn't fit the typical definition of what a good defensive defenceman is.

Some GM: You want a 2nd for DeMelo? You're insane!

The same GM probably: Hell yeah I'll give you a 2nd for Marco Scandella. I'll even throw in a conditional 4th because he has a reputation as an honest D-man, can contribute on PK, competes, moves the puck, keeps it simple, reputation as a good person/teammate. Not afraid to stick nose in, block shots.

RealGudPro rating must be off the charts.

That's a lot to lose that cap hit and add Kase.
Is it really? I mean Andersson looks pretty underwhelming and the 1st is going to be super low. Then again they are still retaining salary....

On the surface this may be worse than Marleau.

With the salary retention, it's more than I'd give up. While Andersson isn't going to be a superstar, he looks like could have an NHL future. Kase is a good 2nd liner, but, I'm not sure I give up a 1st and a decent prospect to for marginal cap savings and an upgrade to the 2nd line.
