I don't think Jarnkrok's has, because he's performed pretty well so far. It's just that guys being sent down have eaten up his icetime.Have to imagine Pulkkinen's trade value isn't much at all at the moment. I'd bet Jarnkrok's has taken a hit too, but obviously not as much.

Yandle for Tatar, one of Eaves/Samuelsson/Tootoo, Smith, and a conditional 2nd that becomes 1st if we reach the Cup finals? Overpayment? Underpayment?

Phoenix will say underpayment and that is really true in terms of what his market value is or what we believe it to be. However Yandle isn't nearly the player he is built up to be, so in that sense it is a huge overpayment. Subban and Karlsson don't deserve a lot of the heat they take for their defensive problems, Yandle deserves it. Even Letang is much better defensively than Yandle, whenever he is moved and somebody pays that big #1 D-man package they are going to be really unhappy. OEL is the best D-man on that team and it isn't close.
I really see this as a big problem. To give some perspective, even Nicklas Lidström penalty killed more minutes in his last season at reduced role, than Yandle has penalty killed during HIS WHOLE CAREER in total PK minutes.
Yandle is great PP+ES defenceman, but he has a HUGE liability. He hasn't been on the penalty kill AT ALL in his whole career.

Pulky has 2 goals so far in tonites game - will probably be 1 of the 3 stars as he is playing very well
What brought you to ask for him in the original trade?
