It will be interesting if he's the new pairing... could be a nice fantasy-hockey value pick.
And the open spot gives a place for Thomas Chabot.
So there is two discount kids into the 6D... which could allow them a good opportunity to add a middle-6 forward.
This trade has nothing to do with Ottawa, so to say the big winner could be Claesson is wrong because Methot was long gone and forgot about when Vegas took him with their expansion selection.
Also, just a quick clarification on your two discount kids remark. The Sens have 8 D as of right now. So this does not open up a spot that is guaranteed for Chabot to come in and take. Everyone forgets about Borowiecki and I assume you did as well? Or maybe you forgot about Wideman? Either way, yes, I agree about a Claesson. Wideman only makes 800 I think and Boro only 1.1.
It is a cheap...but tested and proven blueline with only the two real rookies being Harpur and Chabot out of their 8 signed Dmen. Karlsson, Ceci, Phaneuf, Borowiecki, Wideman, Claesson, Harpur and Chabot.
Dallas robbed Vegas.
