Eastside's Hockey Elite Collide

To Dallas
Vladimir Namestnikov (60)

To Winnipeg
Topi Ronni (63)
Janne Kuokkanen (73)

I like Namestnikov, and if he gets to UFA we may have a reunion. Ronni is just about NHL ready, and will continue to help me compile competent young cheap depth without harming my future at all. Kuokkanen is a salary dump. Thanks for the deal.

I won SC with Vlad Namestnikov scoring the winning goal and I feel I made a mistake letting him go back then a little bit even though it was a tough decision. Ronni is a solid prospect but I just like Vlad and believe he will spark the team to get better results. Good luck Josh.
