Trade

Minnesota gets Pavel Demitra
LA gets Patrick O'Sullivan & 1st rd pick (#17?)

Great deal for Minnesota. Demitra, Rolston & Gaborik is some serious punch.

Are you kidding me? This is one of the worst deals I've heard of, Demitra is vastly overrated now, 1st round pick is worth something and my bro O Sullivan who I used to fight when he was on the Ice Dogs has skill if he can ever learn to backcheck and not float so much.

A proven NHL'er who's still got quite a few good years in him is worth more than a prospect & a pick to a team like Minnesota. I know, I know, you played hockey so you know everything, but this is a good deal for both sides.

The question is will Demitra ever show up come playoff time?

sincerely,
disgruntled Blues fan

ok...kinds harsh, he had a few good series. HOwever, he was never quite the team leader come playoff time and I was not unhappy to see him go.
