So that dream of a CPZ-Veilleux-Moon line will never happen?
Bummer.

Being an amateur/pro scout must be a little crazy...you spend a lot of your free time getting to know everything about these players and in five years, half of them are guys that could end up doing your taxes for you.

Fun fact: Nathan Moon still plays for the Jackets' AHL and ECHL affiliates

[columbia]

A Google news search for "Nathan Moon" brings up a vague reference to him + an article on Australian rules football.
I presume that his career isn't going well.

[Kraftster]

Didn't even realize Dylan Olsen had been traded once, let alone twice no.

That seems like an awful lot of money for Clitsome.

Powe and Asham being cleared out - probably - to make room for AV's pet Maxim Lapierre...if I had to take a wild stab at it...
