<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Campabee</b></div><div>I just don't agree with trading good assets for longshots, there is a reason every team passed on Huuhtanen 6 times and he was one of the last players selected in the draft. Maybe he has matured enough to be worth a later 1st, maybe he hasn't, his game obviously still has warts though cause Tampa could really use good cheap help and they still aren't calling him up. I am willing to bet his stock hasn't risen as much as you think, otherwise every GM around the league would be calling up Tampa and trying to acquire him. I am not saying he isn't a good or even great prospect, I am just saying that I personally wouldn't take the risk of him not ending up another Puljujarvi</div></div>

huuhtanen isnt considered a "long shot" anymore. When he was first drafted as the last pick in the entire draft he was definitely a long shot but now he is arguably the 1st or 2nd best prospect in the liiga. He dropped so far because his skating was an issue but it has since progressed to a level that it doesnt impact his play too much. Again tampa doesnt bring guys up until they are 21/22 yrs old or if they are dominating in a younger league like the NCAA/ CHL. Huuhtanen will probably get a contract over the summer and play in syracuse next season or if he has a good camp could possibly make the team. Also the TDL isnt here yet so he might be dealt at the deadline or he might not be, it depends on how much JBB values him. There is just as much risk in acquiring huuhtanen as there would be in any other prospect of his caliber. The comparable would be if I said that I wouldnt want to trade for Joshua Roy just because he was drafted in the 5th round but he has obviously improved a lot since then.
