Good analysis.  I’m totally agreeing that I can’t figure out what the Isles we’re doing on the Guerin move. What the heck took so long ? I guess we’ll never know what may have fell through.

This is hearsay, so take it for what it is worth, but Guerin had NTC and would only waive it for certain teams obviously.  Heard his list was very small, and as we see, the Pens were on it, so i think Snow just took what he could get here.  Does himself no good holding onto him for nothing.  A possible 3rd,4th rounder is better than nothing.  But if players like Kotalik are going for 2nd rounders, I think it becomes hard to demand that for Guerin.
