Wade Belak traded to Florida for 5th Round Pick.

So if you were the Blackhawks, which center are you trying to land first and sign to an extension? The two I'm hearing are Richards and Jokinen, my choice would be Jokinen. He's still got tons of game left in him, put him with any combination of Kane, Toews, Sharp, Havlat and you have one very powerful line there. He fits the old Blackhawk mold of rugged center who isn't afraid to throw his weight aroung (see Roenick), and he will even drop the mits if needed. I am praying the Hawks land him, he is one of my top three "gotta have" players for them to really get back to towards the top in the next couple years.

Jokinen would be a great pickup, but I don't see Chicago making any moves of any significance today, especially for a high profile player like Jokinen that would cost them some of their future depth...

A good utility acquisition for the Cats.. And just think, if you re-arrange his last name it spells Blake..... LOL!

wasn't expecting the campbell trade..

And Dallas & TB have agreed to a trade for Richards - now Richards has to decide if he wants to go to Dallas.

Its now official!! Players to follow!!!

I'm surprised it was Bernier. I would have thought Vlasic or Carle would be involved for Buffalo to pull the trigger.

To Tampa Bay - Smith, Jokinen & Halpern

To Dallas - Richards & Holmquist

My co-workers are screaming at the Sabres Management right now, I like the guy, but they wanted Cheechoo.

To Dallas - Richards & Holmquist

Tampa made out like a bandit in that trade....everybody is talking about Smith, but I think Jokinen is they key to that deal...

agreed, smith is more reliable than holmqvist and jokinen's speed should give their offense a boost.
