NHL Trade Deadline Passes

LUCAS JUDSON ‘13 (middle school)

Hi to all of you very few hockey fans at Beaver, or just someone reading something they saw. My name is Lucas Judson and I will make a weekly report about the NHL. As you may know, the trade deadline passed on February 26 and a few teams cashed in with some great players.

The Pittsburgh Penguins got Marian Hossa (f), another all-star to play alongside Evgeni Malkin (f), the current point leader. The defenseman Brian Campbell now plays for the San Jose Sharks. Brad Richards (f), who played with NHL great Martin St. Louis (f) and “St. Vincent” Lecavelier (f) on the Tampa Bay Lightning, is now playing for the Dallas Stars for Jussi Jokinen (f) and Mike Smith (g). Tampa Bay also picked up the goalie Karri Ramo. “Ollie” Kolzig (g) is back on the Washington Capitals and Garey Price (g) is now on the Minnesota Wild. Big surprise but Sergei Federov (f) is now playing with the Washington Capitols and Peter Forsberg (f) is back on the Colorado Avalanche. If you read this far I hope you enjoyed it and wait for more. Good bye.
