I’ll take the little trades too. They all give me serotonin.
Obviously one of those win wins.

Playable (not good, but playable) defender and a second for $$ savings I'll take it

I am just shocked that Boston had to pay anything here.

Three seconds to get in and out of the Jaden Springer experience. Phew.
Brad’s worst move of the last couple, maybe Morey’s best.
Edit: just one (#41) to get him last year, could have sworn it was two but that was the Tillman deal.

This is one of those smart deal for both side .
It’s all about the money.

I think Springer has a future in the league. Fantastic defender and potential to be D and 3 .
Only 22.
16 million is big chunk of change though so I get it.
On pins and needles for who might fill that empty roster spot

His chance will be on his next contract . Possibly a vet min.

I had it costing a 2nd to dump him last year. Was absolutely shocked the 2nd went the other way. So, I feel like this was the right price, even if it took a year to get to it.

I was just having some fun with Boston fans that have in different threads try to sell him as an asset this year.

Sure but let’s be real here a Boston 2nd is worth as close to nothing as possible

2030 is a ways away. Even if a very well run organization, unless it is protected it could be anywhere. That said, i wouldn't trade the 45th pick this summer for that Boston pick. But maybe I would the 50th, just to get the variance. So, yeah, I would value it like the 50th-52nd pick this summer. Not exactly a big deal and very worth the money savings.
Edit: Especially when we do know the team will have a new owner by then.

It's entirely possible I'm just more talking a tiny bit of trash back than anything. I can't remember the exact details of the original deal I had proposed but I think the value I had proposed for Springer was essentially zero and that someone would be willing to take him on for free (or extremely close to it), so yeah I was off by a rounding error lol.
Edit: actually my original suggestion was that Springer for Theis was an asset neutral deal so yeah

I'll pass on the crow on that
