It may not make sense for Detroit (which I can completely understand you saying..), but value wise it is by no means lopsided in Calgarys favor.
I also completely disagree with you that Franzen is as valuable as Bouwmeester, but we don't need to get into that.. |
My main point of contention is that it makes no sense for Detroit to reaquire Hudler so I consider his trade value to Detroit as close to zero.
The franzen contract isn't too bad as the last 3 years are 2m, 1, 1 caphits so a buyout if he can't play at 37 is what is likely to happen.
