If I was going to do it, then I'd probably do something with the veterans more than the rookies because they've been playing well and maybe they deserve a chance.
He's a guy that you know has played at a higher level before and maybe just hasn't found the right fit.
One role we've been trying to find is somebody at center who's hard working and kind of pesky. Erik's kind of done that at the U and done that as a pro. Maybe there's an opportunity to see what he can do in NHL.
I maybe would have accepted less somewhere else. I think Edmonton knew that. I can always get players. I just felt the pick was better than players.
In hindsight, probably more time would have been better. Maybe making sure everyone starts on the same night or relatively close.
