Calgary acquires D David Hale plus a 2007 fifth round pick

St. Louis acquires F Brad Boyes

Analysis:
Isles' GM Garth Snow pulls off the riskiest trade of the day by landing the gritty heart and soul of the Oilers in Smyth for the disappointing Nilsson and future star O'Marra.

Flyers get goalie who could become their No.1 while Sabres finally free Biron so that he can help backstop another team and receive excellent value for backup.

Florida receives D Noah Welch

Analysis:
Penguins pickup tons of playoff experience in attempt to toughen up while Panthers get back someone for their blueline in future.

Philadelphia receives D Lasse Kukkonen plus 2007 third round pick
Chicago gets back C Kyle Calder and then swaps him for RW Jason Williams
Detroit acquires C Kyle Calder

Analysis:
Flyers continue to bolster blueline for future where they hope Kukkonen, Braydon Coburn and Ryan Parent can team with Joni Pitkanen to solidify D. Red Wings hope Calder returns to form out West. Blackhawks get versatile Williams but fall short in this one.

Vancouver acquires C Bryan Smolinski
Chicago gets back 2007 conditional second round pick

Thrashers severely overpay for power forward in attempt to make playoffs for first time while Blues team president John Davidson cleans up in this one and should buy Atlanta GM Don Waddell an expensive dinner.

Atlanta gets D Alexei Zhitnik

Analysis:
Thrashers get some much needed blueline help while Flyers hope that former high first round pick can help bolster blueline along with Ryan Parent.

Tampa Bay acquires D Shane O'Brien and 2007 third round pick
Anaheim
receives G Gerald Coleman and 2007 first round pick

Analysis:
Lightning improve their blueline with physical young D while Ducks free up some room to possibly make another deal. If not, then it makes no sense.

Carolina acquires RW Anson Carter
Columbus gets back 2008 fifth round pick

Analysis:
Canes pickup veteran forward to help offset injuries to Erik Cole and Cory Stillman. Jackets get minimum return for guy they foolishly signed last summer.
