As we always do with these trades, we reach out to our fellow SB Nation site for the team(s) involved. Today, we welcome Sie Morley, Managing Editor for Fear the Fin. It was supposed to reassure us Sens fans, but their analysis really just furthered my own frustrations with the trade.
Q: To Sens fans, we’ve heard of Chris Tierney and Dylan DeMelo, but don’t think very highly of them. They sound like a 3rd-line centre and a 5th defenceman. At ages 24 and 25 respectively, we don’t expect them to do much more growing.
