If Boychuk doesn't re-sign, that could be kind of a high price for one season of him. Although I guess they can always turn around and deal him during the season.

Isles are now just in the pack of Metro teams along with us Philly Columbus and Washington going for that last spot and a wild card.
Sounds like they only gave up scrubs so the leddy deal is good. Don't like that boychuk deal. They don't draft this year and will be to close to a playoff spot to sell to get it back.

Could bite them in the ass for not a big upgrade.

I think Boychuk is a huge upgrade, as they needed a minutes eating veteran D man to steady that group. And they got one who is just that and has real trade value at the deadline if they are out if it.

But that scenario certainly exists where the Isles are in the hunt for a playoff spot, decide to keep Boychuk, fall just short and he decides to bolt for an actual playoff team. Then this deal would hurt.
