NHL Trading Deadline; who are the morons that make these deals.



The trading dead line in the NHL came and went with a lot of players moving around to different teams.

Tyler Arneson and Brandon Bochenski traded places on Thursday as Bochenski goes to the Blackhawks and Arnason goes to the Senators. I think the Blackhawks got the best of this deal. I have always considered Tyler Arnason was a soft player that doesn't like to go into the corners and do the dirty work that is necessary to be successful in the NHL. Former Fighting Sioux player Brandon Bochenski is a forward with a big upside that has the ability to score at any time from any place and will only get better as he gets more confortable with the NHL game, I am not sure that Arnason will make much of an impact with the high flying Senators.

The knuckle headed move of the day was Av's trading David Aebischer to the Habs for Jose Theodore, I can't believe that the Av's would have made this deal. Theodore this year has had trouble stopping the puck and this trade makes no sense to me at all. The Av's got worse with this trade.
