I imagine the hat is like the baby from Eraserhead. The tinfoil hat is actually a part of him, and if you tried to remove or loosen it you'd end up killing him.

Just something to consider.

Pls don't give anyone ideas

I know. But that's the gamble part. Still felt like maybe a second should've gone back to CLB. Seth Jones is incredibly young, but he was the heavily sheltered #5 d man in Nashville. Of course that's a pretty tough top 4 to crack. His possession numbers have always been good, but it's also hard to NOT put up good numbers in that system with that usage. Hell, Joey, always lacking in that department, went from a terribad CLB possession team to NSH and has been the best player in that regard tonight (one night, I know).

I think the trade will be seen as fair in a few years. Just a quibble that CLB should've gotten a pick or something, given that they traded the greater known quantity.

Johansen's never been much of a possession-driver tho... he's got these fantastic tools, but there's something missing with him.

He's kind of got a Chris Gratton thing going on.

Isn't that what I wrote?

I think it can be summarized as a lacking of defensive effort (young kid after all, questions about conditioning) and playing on garbage possession teams in poor systems. Looked it up and, fwiw, his possession relative numbers have been in the positive the last few seasons -- ok-good numbers not great. Like many offensive young stars, his two way effort needs work. But not bad considering. I guarantee they will go up on NSH, and Jones' will go down on CLB. Not a tough guarantee, pretty much to be expected really. Torts is going to have Jones block SO many shots. He's going to love it. Meanwhile Johansen will have more opportunity to have the puck than ever before. Oh, Seth, I'm so so sorry. Future Girardi.
