Please explain the Drouin-Kapanen trade

I was scratching my head trying to find one reason why MTL would do that lmao

Don't see Detroit trading Veleno for 2 UFAs .

PIT are fleecing every team here

I'm not a big Veleno fan but that's an easy decline from Detroit. I'd take Kapanen over Drouin. I don't understand why any team would even want Drouin.

Detroit declines, players not useful.

If you want to trade Maatta for Dumo that's fine but you would have to add at least a second, since Dumo is a UFA it's not that big of a deal at the time. I would expect a second plus a bit more since we would be giving you guys cap relief. I like Blueger as a player but we have no use for him. You want us to take him to give you cap relief again it will cost a bit, probably just a depth pick since maybe at that time we trade a couple guys or have a bunch of injuries like we do right now.
