So the first pre-expansion draft trade domino has fallen. A quality starting goalie in Bishop went for a mere 4th round pick as they were going to lose him for nothing.

We need to re-think our value for other such places that should be traded for the same reason.

To ANA: 2017 2nd round pick

To TOR: D - J. Manson

The Ducks will lose Manson for nothing, so a 2nd round pick is very good value

Hey Buds, Bishop is a UFA. That's why it only cost a 4th, so Dallas could negotiate before July 1.

Manson is still under contract. It's going to take more than a second to get a top 4 RHD.

There will be a bidding war for one of ana ypung defence. Make no mistake, they will get full value for whoever they decide to trade.

They'll only get full value if multiple teams can add another d-man without interrupting their current protection list.
