You forgot to add Ottawa adding Wes Walz and Bryan Marchment while losing a 5th rounder and Shea Guthrie!
But San Jose got my vote. But in my experience those big trades seldom make or break a team in the playoffs!

I just figured I'd toss this out:
To CLB: Chris Gratton, and VAN 1st 2006 To ATL: WAS 1st 2006, and a 6th in 2006
Washington is one point behind Vancouver in the standings, if they pull ahead, which they could, I could come out a huge winner in that deal (depending on how that 6th rounder pans out).

I didn't understand that deal in the first place.

I didn't know that you needed to dump the salary of a soon to be UFA whose contract has been 90% paid already.

Yeah that confused me as well! I was willing to part with Brooks Laich for him!

You were not willing to part with Laich for him......Dan you're smoking too much college lettuce to remember that one. Yes, I know he's an UFA at season's end and 90% of his salary's already paid, I just wanted to clear him from my payroll so I could start looking towards next year with a clearer picture of what I need and what I have to build for. Plus I was taking a chance at Washington being a higher draft pick!

I was willing to part with laich but you wanted a third as well or some crazy ass hippy dippy stuff asking for a third as well! Oh well, maybe you are right I may be smoking too much lettuce. Plus the way Washington is dropping in the standings right now!

A Spencer?! Oh Aquaman! You have been hanging out with Mark Crawford and Todd Bertuzzi too long! I was perfectly willing to part with Laich all along! You were trying to hit the home run ball with Emery though! Dont worry, we can talk Laich all you want in the offseason.

No its cause Aquaman is probably the most badass of superheroes! What other reason would I have for calling you Aquaman? In all honesty I am not too sure where I came up with it but its gotta be Divine Dave or Dealing Dave doesnt it? Think about it... Aquaman has sex with fish... How cool is that!?!?!?!?!?

Well I guess it's better than making sweet love to some of the Pigs and Cows that live on the outskirts of Vancouver.
P.S.......I prefer Dealing Dave.
