lafountain Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Well it is draft day which means usually some decent trades. The Flames and Habs got off to a big starts.

raptor0192 Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 The Flyers traded the rights for Prospal to the Lightning for a couple picks, and they traded Umberger and a pick to the Blue Jackets for a couple picks as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffB Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 You've got to love the Wild's Doug R. giving up a 3rd round pick to move up one whole spot in the draft. What a doofus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SabreFaninNYC Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 Unfortunately I was traveling both days and when I read the various recaps I was scratching my head. Fla trading for 2 dmen when they already have a bunch? Although the Sabs did get a giant dman so that's good. Can't wait for July 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoomZoom18 Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 Add Chris Mason to the Note with Jamal Mayers going to the Maple Leafs. I particularly like the Mason deal for the Blues. As talented as Ray Emery is, I was fearful of him going to St. Louis with all the issues he's had the last season. Hopefully he can get a fresh start with a new team and thrive. I was shocked that the Yotes got Jokinen and traded Ballard. My hope is that Olli thrives down here and enjoys it with the way the Coyotes are up and coming. Me personally, I think that deal with put them into the playoffs. I am curious to see what they are going to do with their defense situation now that Ballard's gone. Florida's gotten themselves a helluva d-man with him and I was also a fan of Boynton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
