Agreed

Smart move by Josh.

Now that I see what you got out of Antropov, I'm not so sure I like it Peter. Mind you, I didn't make out amazing with Antropov for 10th overall + Crombeen, but I think you should have waited.

Yeah, Crombeen is pretty much just gp to me so whatever, I basically just tried to reverse the trade I made before went 10-13 but picked up Kozun who's a dece prospect. After a lot of shopping around I learned that you actually made out quite well on the antropov deal. It is what it is my teams in a new direction now.

Pretty even steven

Yup.

Should have cost more for that CGY 1st in 2013 IMO.

Agreed. Top 10 is a lock bordering on lottery.... I would have asked for double that lol.

[Chris]

To be fair to Peter, the ANA pick is 13th I believe. So... if he gets an extra development year out of the player he drafts for a top-ten pick (unlikely to be top-five, but top-ten is possible), then it's a pretty fair deal.

[Peter]

How do any of you guys know how good/bad josh is going to do next year? It's hockey anything could happen, I get certainty for 13th overall this year and know players I want in that area, 2013 who knows. Josh's team was completely injury smashed and I feel his lineup/goaltending has been really improved and that his team will probably not be nearly as bad as they were last year. But like I said, who are any of us to know how good he'll do next year? It's just speculation.

I know how good the rest of the West is by comparison.

Good insurance by Josh, IMO. I don't mean that as a dis to his GM abilities, but understanding the gap his current roster has to the other teams means, once again just MO, that he grabbed a mucher higher pick, in a superior draft, for a 1 year wait.

[Chris]

And to add to that, I got BUF 1st 2012 + Reilly Smith from Steve for CGY 1st 2013. Not saying that Peter didn't do okay here, he just could have done better with that pick.

[Robin Hood]

Peter, don't let people bring you down. What they don't realize is that you bought a 2012 pick at a time when it should be reaching it's peak, which actually implies that you got a bargain. It could EASILY happen that at draft time you get PAID for that pick because of how hard it is to come by top 15 picks.

Solid Win-Win imo.

[The BBKL Insider]

Boom!

Shiv speaks the truth!
