StevieY9802 6 Report post Posted February 27, 2007 It is for sure. They just said it on TSN. 1st round pick two prospects Robert Nilson(sp?) and another prospect. Couldn't get a contract done is why. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sting 11 0 Report post Posted February 27, 2007 I'm certain Smyth was available, but there were also contract negotiations going on. I'm pretty sure the Wings weren't willing to wait until the last minute to make their move and risk being left without a chair when the music stopped. This trade was destined to not occur until the very last minute before the deadline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
