Former UND forward Brock Nelson got two new teammates today. The New York Islander turned some heads trading for former Minnesota Golden Gopher and Blackhawks defenseman Nick Leddy and former Boston Bruins defenseman Johnny Boychuk.
It's really a boost for the Islanders defense core. Picking up Boychuk and Leddy, the Islanders get two defensive players that have won Stanley Cups.
With the trade, the Bruins get a 2nd round draft choice in 2015, 2nd draft choice in 2016 and a conditional third round draft choice in 2015.
The @NHLBruins traded one of the team's most popular defensemen. The return isn't so great. http://t.co/q8zd8kPb3U pic.twitter.com/RFW2lYM44g

Not an easy meeting with Boychuk. Chiarelli: "he was upset, I was upset, I'm still upset" ^CS
