Montreal gets
Jonathan Ericsson
Andreas Athanasiou
Riley Sheahan
Detroit gets
Alexei Emelin (25% retained)
Noah Juulsen
Jacob De La Rose
It helps Detroit with their cap management (basically because of the Ericsson vs Emelin retained), receives a legit prospect to become a top 4 RHD, a cheap & young C in De La Rose.
Montreal receives Ericsson, which is not a good contract but pick up Athanasiou who fits like a glove with his speed. Also, they strengthen their 3C spot with Sheahan (in that case, Desharnais is bought out).
How I see it
Emelin (25% retained) >> Ericsson (3Y @ 4.1)
De La Rose << Sheahan
Juulsen = Athanasiou (or slight edge to AA)
Cap relief for Detroit definitely has value too.
After the trade, both lineup looks like (or close to?)
Zetterberg-Larkin-Abdelkader
Nyquist-Nielsen-Vanek
Tatar-Helm-Mantha
Miller-Glendening/De La Rose-Ott
Frk
DeKeyser - Green
Kronwall - Smith/Emelin (he can play RD too)
Emelin/Smith - Marchenko
Sproul
Pacioretty-Galchenyuk-Gallagher
Lehkonen-Plek-Radulov
Athanasiou-Sheahan-Shaw
Danault-Mitchell-Byron
Carr/Andrighetto
Beaulieu-Weber
Markov-Petry
Ericsson-Pateryn
Redmond
