Not really.
I think the scouting report on Hronek in Detroit was that he's a player that showed some solid all around potential but was never consistent enough to anchor a legit top-4 pairing.
The Canucks targeted someone they felt had untapped potential that they could coach up. He was never as good in Detroit as he's been as a Canuck.
Even as a Canuck he still has to prove it. I wouldn't be surprised if it works but going from playing with Hughes to carrying someone like Soucy is night and day.

They're not getting a hockey deal for a pending UFA. You're getting rental prices.
In other words, we're getting say, Minnesota's 3-4th best prospect and a 1st or something along those lines. Nobody is trading us a top four defenseman or an equivalent but younger forward.
