Habs - Sharks deal

[Superfraggle]

To Montreal:
Stephane Robidas (69 OV)
3rd (Pit) 2013
7 million cap

To San Jose:
Tim Erixon (54 OV)
1st (Mtl) 2013


Good matchup of needs in this one, I think. Habs bring in another strong defenceman without giving up a regular roster player. San Jose moves an expensive UFA for some futures. Wasn't thrilled about giving up the 1st, but 30th overall isn't much of a 1st, anyway. Robidas isn't a young buck, but he does have another year in Dallas on his contract in the NHL, so he's not really a retirement risk.

Habs Defense when healthy after the trade:
Kronwall (71) - Tyutin (69)
Ehrhoff (69) - Robidas (69)
Niskanen (65) - Bogosian (65)
Gervais (61) - Franson (61)

Haha, it likely will be 30 overall. I'm having a ton of fun trading so I want to keep it going, this was part of that. THanks to Fraggle for the talks, it does help both teams.

Now, how does one move Erixon in the CPHL, I already have cheese puke all over me.
