Well, there you have it, the shake up has officially begun. The Laurent Ciman trade has understandably sent shock waves throughout the Impact community and the MLS. Clearly, trading a former defender of the year will always be a big move. Apart from his on-field abilities, Ciman was also much loved by the fans for his heart and dedication. I think that big presence will be missed as much by the fans as his on-field performances. However, this trade is not all negative. In exchange for the 32-year-old Ciman, the Impact received the young versatile Canadian international Raheem Edwards as well as Jukka Raitala.
