If the Panthers only got "a couple picks" for Bjugstad and McCann, then I'm fine with rounding his cap hit up a bit
Not sure who said a couple of picks, but I think they got fair compensation for both. And I think the Pens got two good players.
The Pens paid:
a 4th to Upgrade from Brass to Bjugstad.
a 4th and a 2nd to Upgrade Sheahan to McCann
It doesn't matter what these players did in the past. They are fitting in and doing great in Pitt. This deal also made the Pens younger which is very important.
And Florida stocked up on picks and cap space. If the drafts go right and they land bob and Panarin, its going to be well worth it for them too.
I think both GM's did a great job building this trade.
