When I found out CAR was looking to move a couple of Dmen we didnt hesitate to make a move.

To TOR:
Zidlicky
O Donnell
7 M

To CAR:
Del Zotto
2012 2nd round pick
2012 3rd round pick

We looked at our line up and decided we needed to improve our top 4 dmen. O donnell is a stay at home defencemen for a short term and we are looking forward to his abilities. Zidlicky is a big minute dman and a PP specialist.
We werent the most eager to give up Del Zotto for being 30th in the league standings but this was a trade based on next seasons roster more than this year and Del Zotto being bounced around between AHL and NHL didnt have him completely ready for a top 6 role. Also given the number of Dmen for a bottom pairing dmen and AHL dmen we didnt see a fit next season.

We wish him well and thanks Hanna for the talks.

Good deal for both.

Zidlicky just simply took the fall of a failed season. Hell, a shot I would take ten times out of ten. Moving him allocates more funds to re-sign Reggie and Whitney on the offseason.

The addition of Del Zotto gives me more depth on my AHL blue line for when I enter phase two/ He'll fit in with Alzner, Ellis, Aulie, Tinordi and McIlrath

I think this is a great deal for the Leafs, how much of a nee jerk reaction it turns out for me... i'll find out later

Good move for both sides.

Well done, suits the needs of both teams.
