NJD's send: Vincent Lecavalier and Andy Greene WPG send: Ilya Kovalchuk and Matt Puempel
After days and many messages we finally hammered out a deal! it was awesome and a pleasure doing business with WPG. we both had similar wants in a defensemen but in the end I had to bring Kovy home to his team! what to say about this trade. its very tuff giving up lecav and his FW's galore but call it a man crush on Kovy and his 30+ goals a season. Getting Puempel in the deal is a nice little asset that I hope develops like some think he will. with this deal I will put puempel on the Farm team and call up Mark Cundari to active roster.
WPG not feeling so well so he will confirm tomorrow morning.

I needed to certain cats that i was not strong in, FOW in particular. Lecavalier offered a major opportunity for me upgrade, although I had to give raw offense with kovy. Vinnie being in Philly will keep a high offensive profile and hopefully offset the loss. Greene may get PP opportunity this year if NJ doesn't resign zidlicky, Puempel is still a a yr or so away and I am still a little nervous from his past injury. Great negotiations, a lot of fun and very thought provoking, thx NJ.
