think its pretty fair. whitney has an ambulance attached to him. otherwise id agree with you.

I like it for Hongster

sgupca wroteCOLONI like it for Hongster

agreed, hong did well in getting all those pieces, diversified the team a bit and he got a good future piece in despres

Yep, I know hong was a bit hesitant.

I felt I was in position to make an overpayment, Whitney was young enough to make him my choice. I was in talks for other dmen, but a bit older.

it's not a bad deal for you,

I just like the pieces Hongster landed....the key to the deal is Whitney, if he can stay healthy it's a solid deal all around. If he can't you just gave away 4 nice blocks.

ya if whitney will be healthy forever 100%.. i wont move him at all ><

When did Whitney become labelled as injury prone?...

He had shoulder surgery once. Now ankle surgery. He's 27 with 2 injuries.

Oh well.

lol no i didn't label him.. in today's NHL.. no one can get away from injury!

Great deal for both team. I like this deal more for Minnesota since there getting a great H2H in clarkson and then they get a DD in Klesla and then Simon Despres might be a great 2WD and a 2nd. despite St Louis getting the best PLayer of the deal, Minnesota got a great package. Also Clarkson had a free fall season and for that reason alone Minnesota got him at a cheap price.
