My concerns with this trade are:

1) Brown blew up this past month, are his numbers a little inflated right now? Will Frolov affect his playing time with the top line when he returns?

2) Afino has put up 5 pts in the last 6 games. I traded for him not too long ago with hopes of buying low. He has quietly put up a nice little string of games, so would I be trading him away at the wrong time? Note that I have 3 Buffalo players so I don\'t mind trading one of them away if it\'s a good deal.

One possibility is countering with McDonald in Afino\'s spot because he has been horrible, but I\'m wondering if Nieds will really help his value..especially on the PP.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
