NHL Trade deadline

[gotbeer]

Kings acquire Sabres' Regehr

 

I guess to offset losing MItchell for the rest of the season.

 

 

Blackhawks acquire Handzus from Sharks

 

Handzus is a nice pickup by the Hawks.  Versatile piece.  Not a big piece, but one of those complementary pieces.

Canucks get Roy from Dallas.

Canucks get Roy from Dallas.

 

 

Damn.  Was hoping the Ducks would get him

[Kenny]

I get the feeling that the Ducks are, for the most part, going to stand pat at the deadline.  And it'll be their downfall.

Jagr to Bruins

[Kenny]

Well, Jagr in the West didn't last long.  At least the Stars aren't going to be in the Pacific division (or whatever it'll be called) next season, because for once, with Jagr on the team I was kind of happy to watch the Ducks play the Stars.

[HaloCory22]

Bummer. I was looking forward to seeing Jagr play this week. Haven't seen him play in person yet.

[gotbeer]

Perfect timing to get 4 more points off the Stars.  

[Angel Oracle]

Regehr is a solid veteran blueliner acquisition, whose grit was needed to overcome not having Mitchell.

It still hurts though to not have Greene's leadership as asst. captain on the ice.

That is so important come SCP time.

Sounds like Clowe to the Rangers

[bucbrett]

Interesting.  I wonder if they've spoken about an extension already.  The rumor was that Clowe wanted a 7-8 year extension, which would be absurd.

Rangers regret letting Prust get away. Clowe will hopefully fill that void, and open the ice up for the rest of the guys.

 

Good trade

[bucbrett]

Mikka Kiprusoff is refusing to waive his no-trade clause so it looks like he won't be dealt today. Toronto was looking for an experienced backup for Reimer.

[nate]

Clowe has 0 goals this season, I don't get why he was so sought after.

[bucbrett]

Oilers acquire Jerred Smithson from Florida for a 4th round pick.

I think this is a good deal for the Kings.  Our time is NOW, and Regehr played for Sutter awhile back so he knows what he's getting.

[nate]

Jussi Jokinen to the Penguins

[bucbrett]

So I'm reading about Smithson. He was acquired by the Panthers for a sixth round pick originally. He's 34 years old. He has a solid faceoff win rate but his Corsi numbers are awful. Handzus went for a 4th, comparatively.

Meanwhile a better center in Anton Lander remains in Oklahoma City. Steve Tambellini, ladies and gentlemen!

[nate]

Ben Bishop to the Lightning

[bucbrett]

Yeah for Cory Conacher and a 4th round pick. Nice job by Bryan Murray.

[nate]

Steve Mason to the Flyers

[nate]

Gaborik to Columbus - Has to waive NTC

 

Whoah!

 

Darren Dreger 

Return for Gaborik. Derek brassard Derek Dorset and John Moore. Still pending waive and call.

[nate]

Pominville to Wild

[bucbrett]

What a day! Nothing..... nothing..... nothing...... EVERYTHING AT ONCE

[bucbrett]

Steve Mason to the Flyers[/size]

Michael Leighton and a 3rd round pick going to Columbus.
