Here's how I see it: We paid nothing for Vanek and Holm ergo Benning got us Leipsic and Motte for free. That's a win in my books

It might deter future FA to sign with us cuz we signed Holm outta Europe and we traded him right away

Considering how many were lambasting Benning for signing Vanek in the first place (i.e. why the frick do we need another veteran) and how it takes two parties to make a trade, I think Benning did fine.

its not an "excuse" but when teams like fracking St. Louis ends up being sellers the market for Vanek is gonna dry up.
Jim knows he can draft well, so just gotta think he see's something in Motte that he would have picked given the chance.
