Forewarning: This is an opinion piece. If you want a more analytical approach my colleague @GeoFitz4 published a more analytically inclined article detailing the trade.
Lightning and Canadiens General Managers Steve Yzerman and Marc Bergevin decided to kick off the off-season trades with one hell of a bang. Yzerman sends Jonathan Drouin and a conditional 6th-round pick to Montreal while Bergevin sends Mikhail Sergachev and a conditional 2nd-round pick to Tampa.
This trade was a shocker.
