Whew...that was fun, wasn't it?
The hardcore types who hang on every movement of the transaction wire were extra excited on Friday by the proximity of the NHL's Trade Deadline, which came and went at 3 p.m. ET.
Stars, prospects and draft picks of all measures are changing addresses and the B/R hockey team is in on the act, too, taking a look at moves both at the deadline and in the days/weeks leading up to it to determine the teams whose work was the best of the best.
The price paid for the player(s) acquired was among the determining factors in some cases, while others focused on the quality of future assets brought in for a high-profile exit.
