A new day, and Holmgren won't be pushed around. But, Shero re-raises for Kesler.

My biggest guff was that JVR should have been moved for a young puck mover and not a defensive d-man.

It wasnt the greatest trade at the time, and is a terrible trade as of right now..

I'm fine with the trade, and am willing to let it play out and see what happens.

I wouldn't. I think Schenn may be the better all around player, but its really close. I just feel a trade of Schenn for Kane is a lateral move except for position. Flyers need a LW and the Jets need a C.

Voracek to Vancouver, Kesler to Winnipeg, Kane to Flyers....?

I;m not as fine with you are with the trade, but I don't think Luke Schenn is a bust. I believe he can revert back to his top 4 form when placed with an adequate, two-way partner.

I just saw a deer trying to cross the road, wiped out by a car. The deer was hit so hard, it slid up the road 50 feet. Sad!

Guess Andrew MacDonald won't be playing for the Islanders tonight... He's now a member of the Philadelphia Flyers.
Isles get a 2nd and a 3rd

Maybe, but I don't think Winnipeg makes that move. They aren't ready to win now.

Well I hope so, because if Schenn stays a 15-16 minute a night defenseman, then the final score will be a bad trade for the Flyers.

That was pretty cheap!

Explains why they didn't grab Larsen off waivers. Needed the slot.
