Sounding quite good on the return. Say what you will about some of his free agent signings, but Treliving in trades seems to be quite good.

Russell trade just more evidence that Brad Treliving is one of the sharp young GMs out there. #Flames #NHLTrade

Can never complain about adding a Finn to the roster.

What happens when the final 4 in the west is comprised of 3 Pacific teams and one central team (for instance)?

Clearly Burke wasn't lying. If 2 second round picks was the offer last night, it really did improve. Color me a little surprised!

I mean, there's little chance Dallas beats out Chicago, so this is probably just going to be a 2nd.

But still. Treliving and Burke: great trading tandem, or greatest trading tandem?

Great work Mr. Treliving! Two useful players and a pick is a very good return on Kris Russell.

Will be hilarious if the Stars make it to the conference finals and Russell resigns with the Flames in the summer.

Good trade - got good return for a guy that was overplayed here and in reality is a good 5/6 d-man.

Loubo probably likes Pollack, though - a good WHL lad (though he's no doubt an Oiler fan, being from greater Edmonton, and his pic on the Stars site has a nice Edmonton-style haircut).

I'd bet that Dallas is only a smidgen behind L.A in their chances to beat the hawks.

This poll needs an "I really have no idea because I couldn't have named those two players as Stars' assets before the trade went down if you gave me a year" option
