Breaking: Two Trades.

The Dallas Stars have traded D Nicklas Grossman to the Flyers for their 2012 2nd round pick , and a 2013 3rd round pick.
Grossman is a stay at home defender that the Flyers wanted very desperately. He will anchor the blue line and try to fill some of the void that Chris Pronger has left.

Winners:
Wexler: Flyers because they needed a defensive defenseman to fill the void from Pronger. The two picks wont do much because the flyers are a high ranked team looking to make it deep in the playoffs.
Kyle: Flyers needed a shutdown defender after Pronger was declared out for the season with post concussions syndrome. The picks won't get good unless the Flyers breakdown and fall out of playoff contention

The Anaheim Ducks trade D Bryan Rodney to the Edmonton Oilers in exchange for C Ryan O'Marra.
Rodney is Defender that has played rather well for the Syracuse Crunch of the AHL, I expect him to only be called up when there is an injury. O'Marra is a good bottom six center, that can be physical but needs to get more of a scoring punch. He is a good gritty physical player though.

Winners:
Kyle: Edmonton, they need defencemen and I believe he should get called up soon. Anaheim already has gritty forwards like Perry and Parros so they basically gave up an NHL Defencemen for an AHL forward.
Wexler: I'm gonna say the Ducks because the addition of O'Marra is going to help during the offseason when the contracts of three veteran forwards expire (Sealane, Blake, Koivu)

Minor League Deal.
The Florida Panthers have traded Angelo Esposito to the Dallas Stars for Ondrej Roman.


Analysis:
Angelo Esposito is a talented offensive wise ,but two injuries have really derailed his growth. I don't ever see him ever playing in the NHL full time. I would consider him a draft bust. He was drafted 20st overall, ahead of Max Pacioretty (22nd Overall) and David Perron (26th Overall).


Ondrej Roman
Talented playmaker with a bit of upside. Will need to work on defensive game. I see him maybe a third line player. 

Christmas Special: Dallas Stars

Team Wishlist: Get Kari Lehtonen back. Simple as that. Nothing fancy like Paul Gaustad and his time machines. Just Kari Lehtonen back. Before he got injured, his record was a freaking amazing 13-4-1. His GAA was 2.34. That's AMAZING. Could you imagine if Lehtonen got hurt blocking a shot? I suppose something like this:
