I think this is more than fair for both teams. MTL wanted to get out of Hoffman and Pitlick. They did that, took on a retention spot in its place and got a ton of assets for it.
This ended up being:
Hoffman
Pitlick
for
2.3M of retention
Desmith (Who I think is also going to be traded for an asset - Lets just say a 6th round pick)
Lindstrom
Legare
2nd round pick
4th round pick
If someone made an AGM prior to the EK trade that had the above, we all would have laughed and shot it down immediately. Just in terms of actual cap, Habs basically shifted a little cap this year that they would have had to pay this year (Hoffman+Pitlick) to next season. For all of the above assets.
