To NYR: Stephan Meyer and $500,000
To SJ: Ryan Craig

Busy night for the sharks

TRADE #1 (to free up cap space)

To SJ: Brian Lee and Stephen Yelle

To NYR: Josef Stumpel and FC (SJ2 in 2009 once SJ pays his season3 franchise fee and Yelle will be returned to NY for 1$ once cap room is made)

***********

Trade #2 (looking to improve for season 3 as it doesn't look like I have enough to be a cup contender this season)

To SJ: Marty Turco, Tomas Plekanec, Ryan O'Byrne and Guillaume Latendresse

To TB: Mikka Kiprusoff and Alex Picard (D)

I apologize to the rest of the league as I really think that I have made TB a cup favorite with the acquisition of Kipper.....but I feel i got a great return that will help me compete for many Seasons in brhl2.

Yes I traded a Top5 nhl goalie, but in return I go a top10 nhl goalie in Turco and added 3 young regular NHLers...which tremendously improves my depth
