Joki had an unimpressive preseason last year too. He looked a lot more solid in the regular season.

True. I am still surprised though.

How is everyone feeling about the Joker for Nylander trade now? My approach was to wait and see, and I'm liking what I see from Nylander. This trade may end up as a solid win for us if Nylander can establish himself as a productive top 6 winger.

Preseason means little in the grand scheme of things. I need Nylander to look like a guy who's a perennial 60-70pt wing for me to be happy with the trade, and only real games will clue me in on his future performance.
