The 2008 Trade Deadline Thread

I'm quite happy with the fact that this was the only guy that anyone overpaid for. That's a lot of progress from last year and we need to make sure that reasonable deals become the precedent moving forward. Lots of kinks to work out in getting used to the new business of the NHL.

I'm going to applaud Ken Holland for not getting worked up and making a stupid move. Even if nothing else comes through, I think it's real smart that the big-wigs like Holland and Burke stood strong with their rosters so as to discourage the bloated trades that went on last year. I mean, you've really gotta think on that level. Even if you feel like a deal like Hossa could really help you now, you don't want to set yourself up to continue to be backed up against a wall year after year having to give up the world for middle of the road guys. I think Holland gets this on a much more wholistic level then pretty much anyone in the media as well as many GM's. So again, hats off to Burke and Holland for playing it conservatively. They'll still probably be the two teams in the WCF and then what can you say?

Actually Holland is the Best GM in the league. He didn't sell the team for a cup run.

Decisions aren't made only with him.

Yeah, who wants a Cup anyway? We might half-ass it this year, but at least we can still have Justin Abdelkader to be Maltby's replacement! Woooooooooooo!

Gotta go for it when the window is open.

And since he's the best GM in the league and all, he could just replace these prospects anyway with another brilliant draft.

Stuart is a wing for everybody. Nice depth move. I'm ok with that. I just wanted to say that with Filp with Dats and Homer and Hank with Sammy and Mule I like those two lines.
