Gillis finally makes a move, trading Pierre-Cedric Labrie (from HF: Labrie’s limited skating will prevent him from ever being more than a role player at any level) to St. Louis for Yan Stastny.
Pros:
- An "honest worker" with his limited ice time
- Cheap ($500,000)
- Can play center or wing
- Comes from a notable hockey family that includes father Peter, uncle Anton or brother Paul
Cons:
- He's a combined -20 for his career
- He's only played in four games this year and his career best is only 34 (last year).
- He's a reserve forward at best
Not the splash we wanted for the third line, but we'll take it in case the forward ranks suffer any more injuries.

So we traded a guy nobody even knew was in the system for a guy who’s played 38 games in two years and is a minus 20? Uhhh…good trade Gillis?
Sometimes I wonder if they sit in the war room and Gillis leads off the day with" Ok folks…how can we best put the fans in a total tizzy and make our opponents think we’re incompetent before we do anything cool?" Some jr scout shouts out “A useless brother of a real player!” and everyone cheers.
"Hope you like pancakes, Norway..."
Sounds about right.

We will just have to pray that Mitchell returns for the playoffs. Or else we are screwed.
With the defense we have right now, I would be shocked if we get past the second round.

Eklund is trying to pump that tired old tire of Hodgson to Van for Kaberle…forgetting that Kabby has NO DESIRE to play in the West…where it will become obvious that he isn’t as good as they seem to think in T.O.

I disagree. Kaberle is awesome. He does pinch in too much though..
