Land goaltender Cory Schneider from Division Rival Canucks
The trade sees
Cory Schneider
Tim Erixon
Phi 2nd 2010
We feel we had to pay a tad too much for a goalie whose yet to make it big in this league, but another superb season in the AHL and an amazing butterfly stance has us believing in this kid as a legitimate NHL starter. Losing Erixon hurts, but we acquired Orlov in the Semin trade and he'll fill his gap in the future.
Confirmed. We needed a top defensive prospect, and we got one. Schneider was stuck behind Luongo in Vancouver, and now he'll get a chance to shine.
