No we didn’t.
Im not even a Gaudette fan. He is a scrawny little boy who doesn’t have enough skill to make up for his lack of size.
Not good enough to be a top 6, and doesn’t have the skill set to be effective in the bottom 6.
Even with all that being said, we still lost the trade.
Highmore is a nothing player. I’m sure he is a great fella, but the NHL won’t be his long term career, unless he is great at sharpening skates or something.
AG sucks, but is still much better than Highmore.
Expansion draft fodder doesn’t mean a thing here either. We could have exposed AG and still not lost him. (Remember he kinda sucks).
I’d rather just get a 4-5 round pick, or hide him on the taxi squad
