Not trying to be captain negative, this does make me feel better, but he was a beast on a team that failed to medal.

So was Patrick Kane...

Sabres announce they also trade Jonathan Parker to Kings as a part of the McNabb deal.

Possible: O'Reilly for Spezza (as per Ek)
Not good-
- Purple Eagle

Bad deal on the Avs part, Spezza is always hurt.

Yea, care to explain how that makes any sense.

COL - offered an extension to Stastny.

COL - Needs defense not centers.

Conclusion - EK has no clue.

How the HELL did you guys not mention the J Parker was a part of the McNabb trade?!!?!?!?!?!?!111111

I would agree, but I think the point here, though, is that Fasching was coveted in many circles. I'm still not sure I would give up 2 picks and a prospect for him and someone else, but it sounds like he was the key piece of the trade to both parties.

The Kings said "you want him, then you're going to have to pay up for him", and Murray said "fine".
