Another Sather reclamation project. I don't expect much, if anything from Beach, but hopefully I'm wrong. Also, there were rumors about him being a distraction off the ice? Can anyone speak to that?

Exactly. No risk here that I can see.
An article from the Vancouver Sun just prior to his draft in '08.

I remember wanting to draft Beach in 08, he was a reach though. Always had a huge physical element to his game so hopefully he can be a banger for us. No loss in Mashinter, might as well take a stab at Beach.

Wow. I know Beach is basically a bust.
But he is exactly what I would like to see on the 3rd/4th line. Truculence with some skill that can skate.
Plus a little bit of crazy.

Hey, it's a long shot, but if the price is Mashinter, who isn't going to be any sort of gamebreaker one way or the other, it's worth a try. It's probably a meaningless move in the end, but it can't hurt to give it a shot.

This is not a move that signify that this is a seriously run organization. I always been intrigued with Beach. But then I saw him in the SEL this season. He wasn't really close to being able to compete at that level. No potential or ability. Mashinter was atleast a hockey player...
I saw very little of him in Sweden admittedly, but I just thought he was far from good enough...

I was high on Beach for a while. I hope he still has some upside, but not sure. I haven't seen him play in over a year.

Well at least now we won't have to hear those few people who always cry "ZOMG bRing up MAshinter!!!1!!11!!" every time we "lose" a fight. Just for that the trade is a win.

He had some upside in the past. I didn't think he was THAT far away from the NHL a year or so ago. He has a little bit of 'crazy' in him, which this team lacks.
Also, he had 4 goals in his first 7 AHL games this year and then left for Sweden. My guess? He asked for a trade and then left. He wanted a new start as he felt he was close but was being passed over. I think he may have more in the tank than many here believe.
