Default Logans heroes head west as Nashville adds offence

San Jose GM has made no secret about his love and adoration of Shawn Horcoff. "He's awesome. He can play the wing or center and have you noticed his square jawline?" he would tell me on msn. At first I thought that this was the same guy who contacted Swayze last week, but no, he was setting me up for trade talks.

The deal breaks down as follows:

To Nashville

Teemu Selanne
Colin White
Cash

To San Jose

Shawn Horcoff
Stephane Robidas

At first blush its a huge win for...well no one. I mean I got rid of Horcoff, but I took back Colin White! I guess what this boils down to is 4 UFAs changing places and hopefully getting things rolling with their new teams. I don't think that Logan was anymore thrilled to make this deal than me; he takes a huge hit upfront and I take a huge hit in the blueline.

I can see this working for neither of us, but hopefully it works for both....or at least the Nashville Predators!

Thanks to San Jose for the quick talks and deal!

Slava has described the situation accurately. Neither of us are happy with our team's performance and we both begrudgingly decided to give something up that we didn't really want to. Hopefully it works for both but if it only works for one team, I hope it's me.

As far as Horcoff goes, I have a Spezza like man-crush on him, good luck trying to pry him from me.
