What’s this tomfoolery: a blockbuster trade three weeks before Thanksgiving?! Yup: Matt Duchene is headed to the Senators, Kyle Turris to the Predators, and a boatload of picks, prospects and the Hamburglar to the Avalanche. [TSN]
From the Preds perspective: they’re all in on another Stanley Cup run, and by signing Turris to a new six-year, $36 million contract, they are betting that their success continues. [FanRag Sports]
From the Sens side of things: this is a risk, but a big win to get a player they’ve long coveted.
