Briere for Ian Cole, I'm in on that one.
- shekkie

Now this is reasonable.

i agree that wont get it done, but there is a trade out there that works...whether its for Shattenkirk or another Dman there is a good trade out there
- nonpoint22

I like the idea of Ian Cole. That is much more reasonable and realistic than Shattenkirk.

Likely wanted to unload an unwanted contract.
- bradleyc4

That was my guess.

Per Dreger, Leighton and Sestito on waivers. Looks like it's Boosh the rest of the way.

Everything's on the table

Had to figure that would happen. Boucher is better suited to the back-up role than Leighton.

Flames traded Joe Piskula to Nashville for Brian McGratton.

So yes, they just traded a player for a guy that cleared waivers.

Maybe they needed to move a contract?

I think this would be fair if the Blues threw in a 3rd round pick seeing as Cole's contract is up after this year. But in all honesty Cole is our 1st line Left pairing with Petro, and is doing very well in that position. The Blues do not have much depth on the left side, so in all honesty I don't think your going to solve your defensive situation here in St. Louis.

Now this is reasonable.

Much rather have Boosh anyway.

Poor Sestitov.

Boosh looks better in a baseball cap than Leighton.

Not surprising at all.

He's better suited for the role of goaltender than Leighton.

Poor Sestitov.

He always has the TB game. 2 goals in a 2-1 win. First star.

Not to mention a Flyers uniform.

That's the only reason it makes sense

I think we should build a team of hockey cyborgs.

Flames acquire McGrattan to provide protection for their good players. Step two of the plan: acquire good players.

Optional prax for #Flyers has light participation: Hartnell, Rinaldo and Harry Z only ones who played yesterday. The rest: 3,9,24,32,33,49

See Ant, I just love having to pull up the roster. Glad I'm not driving.

No worries. Leighton will be signed to be the backup next year.

Don Cherry ‏@CoachsCornerCBC
Simon Gagne gets a goal in his first game back with the Flyers. Good Trade. GM Paul Holmgren needs a break with one of these trades



I guess Cherry didn't like the return for Carter and Richards. What a clown this guy is.

Zhitnik for Coburn was a real clunker trade too

He's better suited for the role of goaltender than Leighton.
