  1. "Granlund has good hockey sense, excellent playmaking abilities and sees the ice well. The skilled center is exceptional at running the power play but needs to improve his overall strength and skating to play at the NHL level. The younger brother of the Minnesota Wild's Mikael Granlund, he has emerged from his brother's shadows and has begun to establish himself as an effective offensive threat. His defensive game and positional play is improved but still needs refining and his size and strength is sometimes a disadvantage at the NHL level."

    "Granlund is a smallish talented forward similar to his brother. excellent skills on the puck. Very good stickhandling. Appears phlegmatic, but plays with high confidence and poise. A very good playmaker with accurate passing. Needs to gain strength and get better defensively."

    Not that I'm a fan of the trade, but it's not like it's bad asset management.

      I like Granlund. I think he'll do well. But he's probably going to move Vey for a winger or defenseman now and wanted that hole patched up.

      I hope you're right and he makes up for this. Granlund could do well, but has nowhere near the potential Hunter has. Sure Granlund's proven, but he hasn't proven much

      As Junkyard Dog posted in MG Talk, Granlund plays a similar game and is more refined.
