BOS trades Carter Camper to CBJ for Blake Parlett.
What's the parade route again?
Never was I more proud of this forum than its collective decision not to post this in the Machacek thread.
Oh well, I guess there's worse things to be disappointed about.
I mean, I expect that from someone like SuperGenius, Kev...

Hopefully this works out better than the last time we got a Carter...
I think the problem is with Jeff's. Jeff Carter, Jeff Rimer.
Carter Camper - what a great hockey name.
The trade adds scoring to the Falcons, and opens up a dman spot. I do wonder if he's successful, what does that mean for the other small forwards like JAM or potentially signing TJ Tynan?
Edited add: According the transactions on TheAHL.com, Springfield defenceman Joe Lavin (AHL only contract) was traded to Providence (the Boston affiliate). Could be a side deal.
So, that means Springfield is down two defensemen. Assuming no more call-ups, they have 8:
Erixon, Goloubef, Prout, Weber, St. Denis, McNeil, Madaisky and Larkin.
So the trades effectively make more space for CBJ prospects Madaisky and Larkin.
Wow. Honestly can't believe this. I remember clear as day around the time the 07 draft was announced they interviewed XGMDM during an intermission and he was saying Camper was a first round talent and that they were excited about the possibility to draft him in Columbus. I joined HF shortly after that and started a thread about Camper on the prospects board.
Just funny to me, Dougie was really excited about him.
Dougie was excessively excited and labeled "first-round talent" on someone who ended up undrafted and has played three NHL games by age 25? Color me shocked.
