Latest news: Peca, Snow and some

Peca signed with the Leafs and took a $1.5 mill paycut to be back home. With Pronger and Spacek gone, and Laraque joining Jovo in Phoenix, like the Canucks, the Oilers will have a brand new team, despite making it to the Cup finals.

Oh! So ex-Canucks goalie, Garth Snow was named the new GM for the NY Islanders. Isn't that interesting.

In other news... some words from Marty Reasoner when he found out that he'd been traded:
"You're picking up from a place you kind of called home for a while. It's the relationships that you build, the people that you're with. You invest a lot of time and effort into it and to pick up and move can be hard. But when you sign up to be a professional athlete you know that that's the down side of it. You deal with it and you move on.

"I saw the guys. It's always a little difficult but I'm glad I got to say goodbye and sit down and talk for a little bit before I go."


I read the articles and apparently he was pretty choked about being traded. =( I think at least our guys knew there were gonna be changes with the team this year so at least they were a bit more prepared.
