Wanted to take a look at where the various pieces/parts involved in - or around - the Cats' performance at the NHL trading deadline happened to have landed, now that two weeks have slipped by.
Being that the Florida Panthers are headed in a direction generally thought to be one of massive rebuilding - which placed them right in line with the specific needs of their trading partners - this list is not a critique of any one club's on-ice efforts or acquisition strategies, simply a "where are they now" primer.
To keep matters simple, we're not including draft picks nor prospects below the ECHL level; all will be covered in the off-season. Statistics through March 13th after the jump...

Funny story I heard about him, Charlie once bought 1000 seats in Angels stadium because he wanted to catch a home run. None were hit that day.

A lot of these trades depend on the offseason— what the team does with some of these RFA’s, and what as eliran mentioned we do in the draft.
It;s too early to judge these trades but 2 weeks later, I’m still scratching my head with the Wideman deal.
Same here, but what did Wideman really bring? Yes, he IS a great Power Play QB, but this powerplay was also in the bottom part of the league on the PP with him, and he is more of a difference maker on a playoff team, rather than a rebuilding one. He was also a defensive liability that we did not need.
That said, the Ballard trade made me think we could get a lot more for him, but i doubt there was anything else for tallon to take.
Re: Ballard…all about the contract.

Again, that’s why I kept it simple. We can fight the battles in June.

I agree – can’t figure that one out except if while Wideman wasn’t exactly the guy they were hoping for in the locker room. Not saying he was or wasn’t – just saying that it just reeks of a salary dump that isn’t really warranted.
But if the concept is all about “a clean slate”, how is such a move unwarranted?

I agree on the clean slate, but we also have to meet the cap floor. I’m just worried that even with the RFA’s we’ll have to resign, and I’m assuming that Bergfors, Skille, Ellerby and such for the most part will be resigned, we’re still going to need some pricey contracts. Maybe they front-load a two-year deal to Vokoun and solve that problem.
I will never forget the magical times with Dennis Wideman, the man was a purebred Aztec warrior on a mission to appease the hockey gods…

Why not? You’ve already traded practically everyone else and then the Caps call asking about Wideman. “Sure, what the hell, we’ll trade him too. There must be someone in Rochester we can call up.”

Smell the glove!
It’s fitting that Montoya would be into that film, since his predecessors in the Isles crease all spontaneously combusted.
