That sucked too, but Renaud wasn't as far along as a player as Bourdon was, chance is he hadn't been traded for anything of much value yet. Bourdon had been at least a couple of times.

Yup. Bourdon was going to be a real good player in this league. There was a report yesterday where TB and Vancouver had worked out a deal for Brad Richards at the deadline but Vancouver rejected because TB asked for Bourdon in the package. They said they'd accept if Bourdon would have been replaced for another prospect.
