Fantastic deal for you. perosnally I think Wideman is a nice add on and I would do the deal without him even being a part of it, same thing applies with the unknown player.

So your keepers change from Phaneuf to Neal? Sounds good to me. Or do you have to keep 4 D? If that is the case then you improve with Neal over Carter and slide Wideman or Smith into your 4th D spot. Looks like a good trade to me.

Your team looks pretty pretty solid and the loss of Clowe, Voracek and 4th D will also look neglible towards going for it this season as well.

Deal Dead.

Neal traded to another GM.

Neal, Marchand and Garisson (and a 3rd rounder)
for
Lucici, Skinner and Leddy (and a 5th rounder).

So who won that trade? or fairly balanced.

My guess, the guy receiving Neal (and the upgraded pick) is a smooth talking salesman and sold the guys he was moving better then the other GM. Whatever he was selling, the other guy was obviously buying.

I asked him exactly that. Then again...he's the same guy who traded me Tavares for Dubinsky straight up!

Don't think there's a logical explanation there.

the following guys are the most actively picked up waiver claims in Yahoo right now (in my league).

Any of them worth spending a pick on?

Raphael Diaz - 991 adds today
(Mon - D)
Zack Kassian - 746 adds today
(Van - RW)
Tom Gilbert - 634 adds today
(Min - D)
Sami Salo - 508 adds today
(TB - D)
Chris Neil - 432 adds today
(Ott - RW)

Given my current team below. I'm pretty confident in my C/LW/RW.

Phaneuf is kinda driving me crazy, but Smith and Whitney are decent fill-ins... while OEL has solidified himself in my top 3 D keepers.

Other than that...My Goalies have always been a bit suspect, but Halak is performing when he does play and Bryz seems to be turning the corner. The rest are great depth as we only start 2.

DIAZ is really the only guy interesting me, but what will Subban's return do to his production (or is this guy a sleeper...diamond in the ruff type guys worthy of an early pouce).

Salo is also always an interesting play, but I'm very weary of his injury issues.

Think Diaz is really the only guy worthy of a look, but perhaps just sitting tight is best. Thoughts?

Sorry guys...above comment meant for a different thread. I appologize for the duplicate content.
