I'm just now reading about it, but do I have most of the points?
- First liner
- Not liked by Rangers fans
- Olympian
- Skill and Grit
- Rangers fans won't like it initially
- One for one deal
- Eastern team, but not Boston, Pitt, NYI, NJD, Philly
This is a pretty strange situation. I don't see what sense it makes for Tampa to deal MSL. They're in the playoffs as it stands now, and they're getting their best player back from the IR shortly.
As far as the olympics bit, did Alfie play with Sweden? There was some bad blood after the Ottawa series and the Hagelin elbow. I certainly wouldn't like that deal.
Caps need a shake up. Maybe MOJO?
