IMO, this is a no-brainer. The addition of Richards makes the CBJ a playoff contender every year that he's here. With Federov gone, this is a definite upgrade for the money. We can always acquire a hard-hitting defenseman/enforcer type through free agency during the off-season.
One of the things I like is another shooter for shootouts. I am still sick over the loss to LA. I will be even more sick if that game costs the Jackets the playoff spot.
Personally, I think this is going to happen. It's a good trade for both clubs.
