While the rest of us were busy distracted with the goalie search and musing that getting Hamilton was a laughable pipe-dream...he was probably hammering out the details of the trade. This man is extremely shrewd and calculating and he's only had 1 draft and 1 deadline under his belt up til today and he's already outmaneuvering the other GMs.
Something tells me BT was never in on any of the goalies. Not seriously anyway. He wasn't going to give up any picks in the 1st or 2nd round if he was working on Dougie.

What a great smokescreen/strategic leak.
