Trade Deadline Eve

With the Olympics over, Vancouver seems empty.  And, well, it's gone back to being kind've boring.  Nobody in my office took the day off or came in hungover, which I found boring.  As for the players and coaches, so much for revelling in that Olympic Gold Medal, Mike Babcock had to coach a game last night, although his other team wears red and white as well.  And they won, too.  But besides that, we all knew the NHL resumed because the trades started.  Tomorrow's the deadline, so there should be some interesting stuff go down today.  Will Burke pull out another big deal, or stick some small change?  All that and more can be found in the links below the jump...
