Oates to PHI for a 1st, 2nd, 3rd...

and G Maxime Ouellet.

Gee whiz, PHI is desperate to win it all this year. Adam Oates is still an excellent playmaker, but at 39 is he really worth 3 good picks plus a prospect?? I though Savard should have targeted Oates for a trade during the offseason, but not at that price.

Clarke overpays big time...... emotionnal GMs do that sometimes.

Of course, having major $$$ helps cover up a lot of mistakes.

why isn't anybody mentionning they already have 3 great centers and a solid 4th guy(Murray)...it would be like us trading Komisarek, our first 3 picks in this year's draft for Ed Belfour.
