The Coyotes and Blues hooked up for a fairly large deal late last night in which the Blues gave up the best forward but got two back, and the Yotes gave up the best Dman but got two back, among a backup goalie exchange.

Deal breaks down as this:
To Pho:
Alex Semin LW, 28y 68ov
Brad Stuart D, 32y 67ov
Nik Hjalmarsson D, 25y 66ov
Alex Auld G, 31y 71ov

To St.L:
Brooks Orpik D, 31y 69ov
Mikael Grabner RW, 24y 65ov
Kyle Brodziak C, 28y 65ov
Mathieu Garon G, 34y 75ov
2nd Round Pick (2013)
Cash this year and $1.5 next year

It was becoming quite evident moving a Dman for a forward straight up was going to possibly take me into the regular season with a problem on my hands so this fixes my problem on that front. Also upgrades my backup to a goalie I don't mind playing once in a while.

Thanks to SilentSim for the talks, they were entertaining to say the least.
