Hearing Daniel Sprong has been traded to #Ducks for Marcus Pettersson.
 
Has Sprong's stock fallen so low that he would be traded for someone worse than Michael Carcone?

No. He got moved for an NHL calibre young defender. A 5-7 type, maybe, but better than Carcone.

Pettersson's possession stats are a bit tough to examine because of how garbage Anaheim is in that department in general, but this really doesn't seem like a good deal for Pittsburgh. I get that Sprong isn't producing much right now but he put up a PPG as a 20-year old rookie in the AHL just last season. This would be like if we traded Kapanen for a depth defender after last season because he only scored 9 points in 38 NHL games. Pretty bizarre.

Wasn't Sprong your guy?

You both are obviously terrible scouts. 

Yeah, let's check back in on this in a year or two. Both have put up very good results in the AHL and neither has really gotten a legitimate shot in the NHL yet.

That's Alex "we protected him instead of two top-6 forwards" Petrovic.
 
Chiarelli is in full panic mode, rumors that more deals are coming, Dubas needs to get on that.
