The New York Rangers swung a pretty decent sized trade, just to move up a few spots in the draft, as they managed to snag a young, up-and-coming forward in Emerson Etem, heading to a cheap restricted free agency and the pick, while sending speedy (and unsigned) Carl Hagelin to the Ducks with the lower pick in the 2nd round and a 6th round pick for their troubles.

Hagelin was certainly going to be a handful in free agent talks and with the Rangers' budget tightening up some, lots of roster spots available, but only so much money to go around, so an option was provided, which apparently looked good to the Rangers, while adding more speed to an Anaheim, which isn't too slow to begin with.

The Swede is the only established pool player of the two, but with some added ice-time for Etem, he could potentially start being a low-end hockey pool drafted player.  His 10 points last season were not spectacular, nor was his scoring rate of 0.22 points per game, but his minutes were limited, so he success goes with the amount of ice-time he gets.
