McIlrath is nothing to get excited about.

return still seems questionable at best then? 

 

hockeys future (makes him sound decent?) on McIlrath:  " McIlrath is a nasty, in-your-face defenseman who won’t back down and can clear the crease for his netminder. He is not afraid to fight or just intimidate, McIlrath has a good shot and his puck distribution has been improving but he needs to improve his skating and defensive positioning."

former 10th overall pick, 24 years old, right handed, good size.

Well there is this from hockey's future as well:

McIlrath spent the 2015-16 season with the New York Rangers, seeing lower pairing minutes when in the lineup and appearing in 34 of 72 games in his first NHL season. Envisioned as a Scott Stevens-type shutdown defenseman when he was selected with the 10th overall pick in the 2010 NHL Draft, McIlrath is a liability at times against skilled, mobile forwards. He appears headed towards a career as more of physical intimidating third-pairing defenseman.

Here's the deal...................

 

FLA gives up Dylan McIlrath and a third round pick to DET for Thomas Vanek. DET retains 50 per cent of salary.

I thought you were ******* joking. Not happy...once again, Holland proves he's not good. What a ******* waste of a ******* day... Jesus!

Meh, better than holding on to him and getting nothing I guess, was hoping for a 1st though

Can't really blame Holland for this.  If a team would've paid more than a third than Holland would've traded him there.  Not sure why someone wouldn't give up a second for Vanek.
