same with myers but they both do have very good upside.
mantha and larkin are nothing more than very good prospects at this point.
bogo/myers might not have the value of mantha + larkin but their GMs had absolutely no need to trade either, so one would have had to overpay to get them. especially as mantha and larking wouldn't have helped sabres needs.
myers has at least shown he can produce as a top pairing dman in the nhl with 50pts
I am not trying to rag on bogosian whatsoever but myers i guess in my opinion is a legit threat to be that true top pairing nhl dman for the next decade whereas bogosian will likely never stay healthy enough or produce enough offence to be such
of course neither GM had to make a trade but they nonethless did and that is all that matters for discussing value/return, and i think mantha plus larkin are worth signnificantly more then bogosian
