Eastside's Hockey Elite Collide

C Kevin Fiala (60)

EDM 1st 2019 (#30 overall)

We accept... Maatta was in our plans but with drafting Seider and Robertson, he became more expendable for the future... so we'll use him to move up a few spots in the draft. Fiala has some untapped offensive ability, if he can develop it here, we could find a use for him... Englund's a minor league body who maybe could develop into a cheap #7 defensive defenseman down the road.

Dallas Stars accept.
Fiala is one of my favorite players IRL and I liked his offensive potential. But I see a solid defenseman in Maatta who could play in the second pair. Seems like we both fill our needs just fine here. Good luck with the pick Trevor
