Thrashers and Avalanche make massive swap!

Atlanta GM Peterson never shy to swing a big deal today had his pilot fuel up the corporate jet for another trip west.
The Thrashers had a number of veteran players who just werent getting the ice time they deserved. These players had all held closed door meetings with the GM in the last week and had privately discussed the fact they would like to be moved.
GM Peterson obliged all of them in one fell swoop today.
Moving to the Avalanche is Mike Sillinger, Dave Andreychuk, Murray Baron and promising young Centre Erik Christensen. Coming back to Georgia is defenceman Kyle McLaren, young forward Andrew Ladd and utility forward Pascal Rheaume and a 2006 2nd round draft choice.

The Thrashers wish the veterans well in Colorado.
