Default Florida - Tampa trade Iginla Bolts from Miami

To Tampa

Jarome Iginla
Brian Gibbons
Gustav Olofsson

To Florida

Henrik Sedin

Getting good centers are always the most difficult positions to fill besides goalie. Sedin and Richards are both good 1/2 Centers so that's good. Gibbons and Olofsson were included to make up for the age difference between the two.

Simple case of asset-management.
Sedin and Iginla are pretty much on par so we add a couple prospects that may or may not make a difference

No, none at all.

I thought about flipping Iggy as soon as I got him, and looked around the league for the player that would make sense to add to my team, but also would get the most reaction. I saw Henrik on Tampa, laughed, and knew that I had to make that happen.

At the end of the day you gave up 2nd overall pick (where you gave up Benn) and have a Sedin on your roster.

Epic Fail.

3 young future top 6 forwards (2 already there, + Jurco), a 21 y/o #3 D-man, and a lesser #1 C for Benn, I'll take that. It's also not like my team is hurting for young talent with Nyquist Bjugstad and Palat in addition to those other guys.
