to atlanta dal 2nd 07 and sammy pahlsson. (as stipulated in deal last year which was re worked)

Im confused by this deal. It was a 2nd for pahlsson? Maybe edit your post to the proper format... the 2nd deal posted and things are already getting sloppy. You didnt even list the two teams involved.

To Tampa Bay: Alex Semin, Brad Lukowich, Yann Danis, Syephane Robidas, Alex Burrows, Jason Ward, STL2 Y2007 and STL4 Y2007

To St.Louis: Alex Tanguay, Colin White, Gary Roberts, Mike Johnson and 15 million

I wasn't to happy with the trade at first since i realized they were friends but i guess it does have good value for both, we'll just have to keep an eye out for trading int he future.

I have a problem then.
Philly had agreed to trade me the Dal 2nd 2007 pick, and I had already moved it in a seperate deal.
This is probably why we shouldn't be talking trade before we are allowed to.
I need the Philly GM and Bryce to get ahold of me soon so this can be worked out.

to washington kristian huselius and radek dvorak along with 3 mill in cash
to atlanta olli jokinin

WOW. Washington gets aboslutely owned. Huselius has 1 good year and is a huge risk back with Keenan. OJ is a top 10 C in the league, and top 20 player.Welcome to the league kiddo.

LOL 1 year wonder. I guess Kopitar is a 1 year wonder as well. I guess any player that has a breakout year is a 1 year wonder. Huselius, playing LW with Iginla I predict around 100 points next season. Plus Dvorak and the cash.

And now I'm sure you're gonna chime in with your dude I'm a Flames fan garbage Phaneuf sucks I know everything about the Flames you know nothing.

I guess you just created this thread to rag on people

Wow, that Jokinen trade is terrible for WSH.

To NYI: Saprykin
To Washington: Russell + $ 2 million cash

I think Washington made a very good trade here. Kris Russell is one of the better defensive prospects out there. He is a bit small but with the skill he possesses I know he'll be a good NHL.

I can't say I know what NYI was doing though. Seems a little silly to deal 2 million cash alone (let alone both) for Saprykin who's going to Russian next year apparently.

You know it eh? The odds are he'll never make it to the NHL. Doubly so since he plays the notoriously difficult position of defense.

Saprykin however, in contrast, has made it and played very impressively at times, and is going to Europe next season because of contract disagreement. He is still young.

I'd bet on him returning to the NHL over the prospect signing an NHL contract and actually sticking with a parent club.

I realize that no trades have officially gone through yet, and I apologize for bitching about this, but this is perhaps the most lopsided deal that I've seen in the league thus far....

To Atlanta: E.Nabokov, 5th rounder & a conditional pick
To Detriot: P.Sykora

Nabokov is one of the top rated goalies in the league. Sykora is a mediocre rated forward.... as he should be. To me, this is a new GM getting robbed in one of his first deals. Again, I'm not one to complain about deals, but I hate seeing a new GM to the league getting fleeced.
