It's a weird trade for the Hawks to make but I might have done it too in their position. Cheechoo is due for a big ratings drop and Kariya is a UFA this summer. Meanwhile Hemsky and Horcoff are both scoring a PPG for the Oilers. If the Hawks can find some chemistry and Hemsy/Horcoff contribute as much this season as Cheech/Kariya were than this is an amazing deal for them.

The Sharks better hope to make the playoffs and win a round or 2. They can do it, but if they don't this move will hurt a lot. And it will hurt even more if they don't resign Kariya to a huge deal.
