I loved this trade from the get go. If Doan can grow and loves to be here, he is going to cement us winning this trade if the centerpiece plays as advertised

I wanted to pair doan and mcleod, but assumed doan would have been playing down as a young player on line 4.  Pleasantly surprised that those 2+tuch has become a thing, and it's probably been the most consistent line.

Peterka has 3 goals, 9 points, and is +9 in his first 10 games.  
 

That’s a 24 goal pace, and he isn’t getting much PP time.

Good for him.  He's a very good player.  Hoping in the long run the Sabres ended up with 2 very good players in their own, though significantly different, right.

Peterka is scoring at almost the exact same rate as last year. He's off by 0.1 while his secondary assist rate is up and his overall pts per 60 is up just a smidge.

I'm confused too.  This isn't difficult if you don't change the discussion.  Are you saying every trade is even if both teams got better?  How would you measure if both teams got equally better.  Wouldn't it be scarce to say both teams got equally better?

The math has to be on the side that one team got better than the other. Or as I'd call it, won the trade.  That's what I think is so difficult for some posters to even suggest.

I didn't change the discussion I simply asked a question.  I appreciate your follow up, so here's mine.

If both teams improve, would you say the team that improved less lost the trade even though they improved?

If there are two winners in the lottery and one person won more than the other person it doesn't make the other person a loser does it?  It just means they did not win as much.

Win/Lose is a finite discussion.  But, if both teams can improve, then are we moving out of a finite discussion?

In the end, it's subjective so mostly it's just not a conversation worth having especially as the difference between outcomes gets closer.
