COVID-19 Sim League (CSL) - Season 4

Recommended Posts

Tonight, on the night of the trade deadline, Dallas completed three trades.

 

First, we acquired veteran center John Madden from the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for our second round selection in this year's draft.  John had been a long-time target of ours due to his effective two-way play and we were happy to get a deal done.  We have prided ourselves on being a strong defensive team and adding a player of John's calibre should strengthen us.

 

Shortly after, we made a deal to acquire Jay Pandolfo and Kyle Brodziak from the Phoenix Coyotes in exchange for our third round selection in this year's draft.  Once more, this move was about securing the services of an effective defensive presence to improve our bottom six.  Jay will be reunited with John which should make that line a very tough line to play against.  Kyle, while still out with a season-ending injury, should be good to go for next season as a center option for our bottom six.

 

Finally, we topped off our business by acquiring Jason Blake from the New York Rangers in exchange for Trent Hunter and prospect Colton Teubert.  While Jason is not the winger he once was, we feel that he can still provide a bit of scoring and reliable two-way play to help our team out.

 

To ensure that we are compliant with the salary cap after our transactions, we have sent down Angelo Esposito to Iowa and have waived Kevyn Adams, with intentions to assign him to Iowa.  While Angelo had performed admirably in his short time with us, we felt that more time in the AHL would help round his game in the long-term.

 

We'd like to thank @Monty, @Zfetch, and @Jaku for providing quick and easy negotiations throughout the day.

Looking forward to seeing if this group has another run in them, or if I destroyed the team chemistry by trading away Brown.

Today, Atlanta completed 1 move before the recent trade deadline with the Chicago Blackhawks. Tomas Kaberle was swapped in exchange for Andrei Markov as both general managers were on a quest to bring new elements to their defense. We thank @Patrick Kane for the negotiations and wish the Hawks luck in their inevitable playoff run.

 

Though Atlanta's phones were busy today, this ended up being the only move for the franchise today. With the recent acquisitions of Alexei Kovalev, Tyler Kennedy, and Andrei Markov, the Thrashers are feeling confident of their chances moving forward as the playoff race heats up. The East is once again a fierce dogfight and momentum must be kept in the forward direction.

 

Atlanta Thrashers

 

Ilya Kovalchuk - Pavel Datsyuk - Alexei Kovalev

Johan Franzen - Artem Anisimov - Alexander Radulov

Nikolai Kulimen - Matthew Lombardi - PA Parenteau

Fredrik Modin - Tyler Kennedy - Mattias Weinhandl

 

Andrei Markov - Paul Martin

Ossi Vaananen - Ilya Nikulin

Ron Hainsey - Denis Grebeshkov

 

Pekka Rinne

Jose Theodore
