After weeks of negotiation, blood, sweat and tears - we have a trade


As the title suggests this was a trade that went back and forth...back and forth...back and forth...as Beer Leaguer worked tirelessly to make the deal happen.
After BL worked many different angles from 6 to 4, to 10 player swaps. so we finally settled on a boring 4 player swap... BORING...
The key to success when dealing with Stadnicky is do everything for him (he must be in management)...
So after that lame post I will now pronounce the trade:
Beer Leaguer trades
Backstrom and Myers
for
Statsny and Doughty
Approvals please.
Greg - number check please - but if I used the magic spreadsheet properly the trade works as indicated. If it does not Brad will drop Phanuef to make it work...

Ha ha ha. And for the record, 92% of what was said is 100% technically correct. When the trade involved more players than I have toes, that's when I was lost at hello.

I approve BL's persistence!!! Good on ya!!!

I agree to all trades, comments, jokes, arguments, and anecdotes that involve dropping Phaneuf.

I understand your comments Tim .... I made the trade last year with Brad ... it really wasn't easy! But, in hind-site, it worked out ok.
