They also brought in over the hill, bill renford for a pick or 2. And I loved getting Chelios, even at that price. I truly thought ulf was an over payment at the time, especially if you were gettng Chelios!!@March 23, 1999 (Trade Deadline):
- Acquired Chris Chelios from the Chicago Blackhawks for Anders Eriksson and first-round picks (1999 & 2001).
- Acquired Ulf Samuelsson from the New York Rangers for a 1999 second-round pick and a 2000 third-round pick.
- Acquired Wendel Clark from the Tampa Bay Lightning for Kevin Hodson and a 1999 second-round pick.
Wendel was a power play luxury at that time and at his age. Maybe a fair price and he did produce in that role, but scotty bowman was our coach and he, rarely played him there after a few games. Afterwards, he was condemned to the 3 or 4tb line, where he was useless. I feel scotty actually played him too much to close the season and tanked our playoffs. (Shit, scotty, if you didn't like the trade, just bench him. He certainly wasn't helping the 4th line.)
