Whitney to Anaheim for Kunitz and some young guy i've never heard of. (heres the link to find out his name.)
I really don't see pittsburgh's logic in this move. pittsburgh's biggest weakness so far this season has been on defense. They had Gonchard and Whitney out for most of this season so far. And even once Whitney got back they were still losing a lot of games. I don't think they are necessarilly weak on offence considering they have 2 of the top 3 best point producers in the league. if anything, they should be looking to take on a defenceman rather than trade away their second best defenseman. Whitney had 13 points in 28 games and was a good puck moving defenseman.
Whitney will fit in well in Anaheim who already has neidermyer, pronger, beachamin. Maybe this is a sign that Anaheim is going to trade pronger because why else would they acquire a d-man?
Pittsburgh does gain a lot in Kunitz. He had 60 points two years ago when the ducks had their cup winning season. He can probably put up some good numbers playing with crosby and malkin.
Pens, Ducks trade today,
will they now make the playoffs?
theres no fucking way

Bertuzzi
He had a great game again last night. He scored his fifth goal in his fifth game, still on pace for 82 goals this season.
He played with Iginla on the powerplay and it always looked deadly. Then he played with Conroy on the second line for much of the game. This line had a lot of pressure throughout the game, even though it did not score. Bertuzzi had good presence of mind, and was setting players up to put a lot of pressure on Edmonton.
The only complaint about Bertuzzi, would be that he is not being very physical. Every once in a while you see him line up for a big hit, but he usually lays off. Iginla has already been in 2 fights this season, but bert has not been in one.
Flames fans don't despair, you always start the season off really shitty. The fact that you've got Bert the superstar, and not Bert the Floater, means that you will have a great season.
check out this fight last night. the flames player looks like he got his ass kicked. but when you consider that Macintyre outweighs Prust by 75 pounds, then you realize that Prust did an amazing job. The hit by Macintyre is the best hit so far this season, and Prust had to stand up for his teamate who just got boulderized by Macintyre.

Will Bertuzzi and Phaneuf Get ALong?
I wonder if they will ever go to Chianti's together. They seem to fight each other a lot and really hate each other. Is Iginla the mediator between them? Do they all play rockband together?
