A changing of the guard for both teams. From my point of view, it was clear we needed an upgrade on our defensive side, and our forwards were quite crowded. I wanted an elite player, and Morgan Rielly, who put up close to 50 points, and led the Leafs to the Conference Finals was that sort of guy. We also get Alex Newhook, who has a strong chance of becoming an elite player himself, and Olofsson is a decent prospect himself. Koivu is guy that can fill in on the 2nd or 3rd line for us, but it ultimatley in the deal due to cap reasons.
