NHL Trade Deadline Moves

March 5th, 2009 · No Comments

Rangers pick up 2 players today to fit 2 immediate needs at the Trade Deadline. Center Nik Antropov from the Maple Leafs (6′6″ monster with a scoring touch, but enigmatic – sound familiar?) and Defense Derek Morris from the Phoenix Coyotes.

The Rangers gave up a 2nd Round Pick to the Leafs and 3 package deal of D. Kalinin, Nigel Dawes and Petr Prucha. Prucha finally gets a chance to play somewhere, but will really miss Dawes. Had great scoring ability, but his size prevented him from playing the top 2 lines.

Love the moves, especially with getting Avery earlier in the week. Now, if Torts can get them all to play their real games, we have a bright future. At least in in the 2009 season.

I think we are still short of the Devils, Bruins and Capitals and even the Pens if they make the playoffs, but I still think this puts us in a much better place. Will showcase the new players tomorrow night against the beloved Islanders on short island.
Later foolz.
