Elias 2662 Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 (edited) How exactly is Todd White dealt for a 4th rounder while Todd Fedoruk is dealt for a 2nd? Edited July 31, 2005 by Elias 2662 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or am I reading it wrong? 230 games, 244 pts? Over a point per game dealt for a 4th rounder... I dont think so. He has 159pts in 276 games. I dont see where tsn pulled the 230/244 from.

Triumph Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I've always thought todd white was quite overrated. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Because he is. He's smallish, not that fast, and gets to play with either Havlat, Alfredsson, or Hossa - that will always help your numbers. I was surprised the Senators made this deal only because White is from Ottawa. I always felt that would keep him on the roster. My guess is that the Senators refused to qualify him, so they dealt him to Minnesota, who will. Same thing with Jeff O'Neill. Trade values are no longer constant anymore.
