As I sat at my desk contemplating what to write about this afternoon, I stumbled across an article that was retweeted on my Twitter feed. The headline read something to the tune of, “Zdeno Chara to Stars?” so obviously I was intrigued.
After clicking on it and reading through, I finally figured out what I was going to write about. See, in the article, there was a report that the Stars had called Boston about trading for the 39-year-old (yes, 39) Chara. While Chara is a towering defender with plenty of weight and the ability to bruise up opponents, the trade scenario was atrocious.
