Thank goodness that the team listened to all of us experts here on HFBoards!
It’s a huge conditional return. Let’s hope that Moldenhauer has a change of heart and signs this year with the Sting. Very reminiscent of the Konecny trade with Sarnia, seeing all of those conditional picks!

It is interesting the way the picks were assigned. If Moldenhauer does not report this season, the 2022 3rd is void. Same with the 2023 5th if he doesn’t report next year. If he reports for his final season, then the remainder of the picks would be valid. So, I assume the conditions are based not on him reporting and playing a game in the OHL but he needs to report by a certain date for those picks to be transferred. You cannot transfer a 2022 3rd if he doesn’t report until 2023-2024 season.
But, regardless, we assumed it would be a conditions based deal that would involve multiple 2nds and 3rds so this is a pretty good result. Oddly enough, a much better return than the Fantilli deal.
