I was quite surprised to see Smyth traded.

Of course, my Wings settled for an injured bruiser (Bertuzzi) after losing out on Tkachuk, Guerin and Laraque. I'm not against Bertuzzi, I'm just hoping he can get healthy soon so he can play before playoffs.

And I have to agree with Bob McKenzie that players who are traded during the season and become UFA at the end (rental players) can't re-sign with the team that traded them. It'll make teams think long and hard before making this move.
