Thanks for your comment, please let me respond.
The MTL trade is to get something in return for an AHL Goalie with an expiring contract and has NHL experience. MTL needs a better backup. Alain was undrafted, but is putting up alright numbers in AHL.
With the NYI trade I wanted to get a RHS, fast, scoring prospect. Ho-Sang made sense and NYI needs to replace Lee and Nelson at the end of the year with still trying to make a playoff push. Sometimes a little maturing is needed and edge isn't always bad thing. Also keep in mind a label is a hard thing to escape once it happens. For your reference past players with a reputation for being a problem in their early years ( E Kane, P Kane, P.K Subban, P Roy, E Lindros, T. Seguin, and many more). Might be worth a risk?
I completely understand your point on the Van Trade. I think something needs to happen with Ek, maybe an Iowa stint instead of bottom 6 minutes.
The EDM trade is a personal preference for me. I really do not think much of M. Foligno. He is paid too much and has little impact on the 4th Line. Zykov has played 28 NHL games and has 4 goals (Average 1 goal every 7 games) small sample size, but had 33 in the AHL last year. For comparison EK has played 117 nhl games and has 10 goals (Average 1 goal every 12 games) but one is a token player and the other is way to early to give up on. I i think he has good size and skill and could help a MIN team. He is also only 23.
Sorry for my rambling, but thanks for your thoughts.
