Gagne traded to Tampa Bay

SimonGagne2 Gagne traded to Tampa BayThe Philadelphia Flyers have continued their busy offseason today. Over the salary cap and in need of a salary dump, they have traded Simon Gagne to the Tampa Bay Lightning for Matt Walker and a fourth-round pick.

This gives the Lightning quite an attack with Gagne, Vincent Lacavalier, Martin St. Louis and Steven Stamkos. And with Gagne’s contract expiring after the 2010-11 season, it’s not a huge deal if he stinks up the joint or gets hit with his usual injury bug.

As for the Flyers, this is a move to get under the salary cap. No way is Matt Walker and a BS fourth rounder worth what Gagne brings to the table.

And if you are scoring at home, this means that David Akers is now the longest tenured athlete in Philadelphia.

  3. Excellent. I haven’t had a similar view here in Memphis, but I guess that isn’t too too hard to imagine.

  12. Thanks for writing about this. There’s a lot of great tech information on the internet. You’ve got a lot of that info here on your site. I’m impressed – I try to keep a couple blogs reasonably up-to-date, but it’s a struggle sometimes. You’ve done a solid job with this one. How do you do it?
