Its a crap deal. And more baffling as time goes on.

How is it more baffling now when Petry just signed an even bigger deal after having a similar season to the one MacDonald did in 13-14?

Yeah, What is the reasoning behind that?

Scouts feel his game regressed as the season went on. However, he has world class wheels and I'd take a chance on him.

He had very high expectations for him and didn't have a great draft year. I heard comparisons to Brandon Saad's draft year, but I think teams are a little more nervous because he is a defenseman.

Can't argue with that after what Sweeney did yesterday.

Reading between the lines of what scouts have been saying, I get the impression that he's not the sharpest tool in the shed.

Maybe that's why Greenway dropped. Seems like he's got a head full of rocks.

How does MacDonald's deal look in comparison to Anton Stralman's?

Arizona has 4 3rd round picks, a deal could still be coming.

In hindsight would you rather have Konecny or Merkley and Bracco.
